I can't find anything on Dirty Dingo's web site even though they have a picture of it at the top of their page.

The cheapest kit I'm seeing is the LSX Innovations: https://www.ebay.com/itm/LSA-Superch....c100276.m3476

Then the LSX Innovations with the HD tensioner: https://www.ebay.com/itm/LSA-Superch....c100276.m3476

Then the ICT Billet which comes in two parts but uses the stock LSA supercharger tensioner: https://www.ebay.com/itm/LS-Truck-LS...53.m1438.l2649 and https://www.ebay.com/itm/LS-Truck-6-...53.m1438.l2649 (while this is cheaper than the LSX Innovations with the HD tensioner, it doesn't appear to come with the LSA tensioner so that has to be purchased separate).

The ICT Billet one looks like it wraps the crank more but they both look like they wrap the supercharger about the same. If I'm just leaving the stock pulleys and all (or even if I change the pulley to get 8 psi instead of the 6 psi) I'm not really sure I'll need that advantage.

I would probably try contacting Murphy from LSSimple, i hadnt noticed he wasnt making them anymore, i dont want to assume, but maybe due to the "cheaper" alternatives.
Hes usually really good at answering the phone, i was just about to contact him, because i want to upgrade my 6 rib to 8 rib, since ill be going to an LSA Kong 2650.

With his 6rib, i have never had any issues, no belt slip at all. I would probably just try emailing or calling him.
As far as build threads, I have mine, but it is definitely not the best put together thread as far as content. I did an all out build on my Denali, and its been about 8 months since i completed it.

Before my old Denali was totaled my some idiot. I was looking into doing a LSA swap too. This guy had alot of good stuff for it on his website.

If I did it again, I'd pick the OKW kit. Plus he supports a forum vendor, so thats great!

That price for the LSS bracket is slightly cheaper i believe, usually the 8 rib was 750 and 500 or so for the 6 rib.

That Olson Kustom Works kit looks nice. Pretty similar looking to the LSX Innovations kit just it doesn’t have the extra lower idler pulley to wrap the crank more but it does like look like it might wrap the supercharger the most. I’m kinda leaning toward the LSX Innovations kit, it looks like really nice quality in the pictures.

Well, unfortunately I got screwed out of the LSA I thought was a done deal. Anyone know a good place to get one? I’ve seen people on the CTS-V page roast people about the eBay prices ($1500) but I’m not seeing any cheaper than that.

ZL1 and CTS-V forums would be my go-tos
