I'm going to install my listens 2.85 upper pulley and blower spacers this spring.

Will the stock belt work? If not what size will I require?

My son asked me and I thought I read that with blower spacers it allowed you to use the stock size belt with a 2.85
But I wasn't positive lol

Hey Hemiride, Mean Cat runs the TBA Machine 2.85 pulley with the blower spacers and he uses the stock belt. No problem.

Looks to be project at 10 am while can't watch the St Peter's burger Grand Prick. Bust another ver ter bra. Got to make my gun shop into a bed room for the big wedding I am not invited to. Rater have back surgery on the 6th. Oh well,, hell, collect all my shit in 1 place after 14 years and have a shine and fer get ster. Car painted Monday, town home finished 2nd week of April, all guns and wine and knives collected and ready fer war. Car back into a 2.5 car garage,,, new door. Off to vicaden land.

Thanks for the reply

Since this thread has been brought back to life, I wonder if anyone knows what the pulley is supposed to be torqued to?

I have another question which is unrelated

I have the blower spacer and thermo blanket kit

Question is. When applying the blanket do you clean the bottom of the blower before putting the blanket on? If so what is used to clean the surface?

Just use a wet towel to get dirt / dust off & dry it off & the blanket will stick fine.

I bought my kit a year ago Feb.

Now I just read that there's an issue with the bolts being 5mm too short. So far no one has an answer for that. What's your take on that?

I didn't hear that , if your talking about the bolts that come in the kit ?.... they were fine for me & I added a small washer under the bolt head so it doesn't dig into the s/c lid.

OK, if you are worried about that you can do the threaded rod & nut. I haven't heard of any issues with it as is, yet ?

Any M8 size washer will work correct ?
