Default Fixed my belt slippage issues(pics)
Talked to a member on here, worked for him, so I gave it a shot, now I have boost LOL. Had to pick up another atleast 50hp. So now I am boosting about 9 psi(open exhaust).. So I went from 5- to a solid 8+. Wasn't hard at all, just had to redrill one of the aluminum spacers in the idler pulley. Also didn't have to change belts....

Looks good, lots of wrapage there for sure. How close is the belt to itself, it looks really close.

If you look at the first pic, on the top and below the rad hose, you can see two stainless bolt heads, thats where they were..
