Default Crank Pulley Help

Hi All, and before you say it, this is not another thread asking "How do I remove the crank pulley".

I am looking at installing a supercharger (USA Kit) but I am stuck with how to run the additional crank pulley.

It looks like my crank pulley and crank position thingy is one complete unit? How do I remove the single crank pully and bolt in a double one (One for Acc. and one for supercharger). Like this one: http://store.summitracing.com/largei...fa018021_w.jpg

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Regards

Norton

with a lot of difficulty...have you ever removed the crank pulley on a falcon before? it only has one bolt, right in the middle to hold it onto the crank. i'm sure you could get something link that made up, but i think you'd be better off mounting the s/c so it lines up with the standard one, and get a longer drive belt

Easy as!

Since you have a V8 the old pulley un-bolts (4 bolts hold it on 9/16 or 5/8 Sorry been a while) from the harmonic balancer.

Then you just bolt up the new pulley!

Not true.....I have found out that the AU's have a combined Pulley/Harmonic Balancer/crank position.

There is no way to seperate the pulley from the rest, so instead of paying for a new pulley ($100 to $150) I have to buy the CAPA pulley for $400 as it has been designed to fit on the existing AU pulley.
