My God man, just how much **** should one person have to take. I feel very bad for you. That is one bad *** well thought out motor that is going in a very sick *** well planed car. I don't blame you. I would be LIVID. How much could it cost to simply build a 2x4 crate completely around that bad boy. I wouldn't care if it costed 200 to build the dam crate when you got 40,000 dollars to protect. You would think they have them already built and on hand ready to drop motors in them.
You may not believe this but me and a friend are going to head to Florida for some festivities. I showed him your thread and he looked at me and said the same thing I was thinking. Where in the hell is LME. I don't know why but I thought it was in Georgia. We looked it up and saw it was in Texas, Dam it. If it was on our way we had every intention on talking to you, and volunteering to pick that bad boy up for you in my Yukon Denali and bring it to you. There are 4 points for ty downs. With it on a stand like that and 4 straps you could roll that thing and it won't move. Had to hammer the brakes bringing our motor home and it didn't move, and I mean hammered the brakes good.
Anyways, Best of Luck to You Man. Sorry your going through this crap.

Now come on now. How sick would it be to show up to the wedding in that Bad Beotch. Hook some cans to the back of it and just blaze the tires on the way out. That will get your womans motor running. Lol. Congrats

The lack of quality control these days is on a downward spiral. No facks given anymore. I see it all the time in every industry. Yet you can order hardware from summit and it ll show up with balloon bag protection!

ATI told me the same thing. Do not use the underdrive balancer. They said the smaller ones cannot control harmonics properly. Bigger is better. The underdrive he has on the alternator in the pic is how you want to do it. The LS7 ATI super balancer is what we use and looks just like the one in the pic. Has been working fine for 4 years so far. We have that same size pulley but it doesn't look as good as that one. I had to build my on mount to put it in the same spot. Wish they would have made that mount when we did ours. It took quite a bit of fine tuning to get our belt to stay on with the home made one, but finally got it working flawless.
Who makes the one in the pics? Is it the same manufacturer as the pulley? Looks like the same alternator we have. Powermaster?
