One of the few injuries I’ve managed to avoid (Torn Tendons) in my big accident I broke my right shoulder out through the joint and across the scapula, as I wasn’t really expected to survive it was low on their list of things to fix so is still a bit Mong today, perhaps this is why I’ve never torn a tendon as I’m aware of it’s inherent weakness now..

sorry Ian I was meaning this one with you shoulder

Uh, yes? Plus the weight on the central axis of the primary pivot point rotates counter centrivically around the idiot typing this comment. In summary, I have no idea what works but I’m sure you’ll get it bang on

I got half way through your comment and going what !!!!! but the end made sense

Yeah none of the crate motors come with that. Which is stupid as they need it to run the blower drive You only have to change the bracket if you boost it 25% or above. Other then that you can just keep the factory bracket. If I would of known I would have just suggested buying the offset bracket straight up to save some $$$ You would of had change from $400

yeah but I like it , it’s different plus manual tension and it will be abused mark my word ,  this build is going to be expensive know matter what I do

What made you buy that? Wouldn’t of been cheap They are fair chunky looking. Not subtle.

I had nothing for the charger set up my motor didn’t come with either tensioner, I  liked that fact more wrap on blower also I can change boost with out changing other stuff just the bottom pulley , 1000 bucks ,exchange rate kills us on this side of the world

You need a VE bracket and alternator to suit your pulley offset. You will also need to buy a blower tensioner bracket and the upper and lower tensioner pulley. Also need some sort of idler to fill power steering pump void. Get it all from HSV direct.

cheers Cava I Don’t need any of the supercharger stuff as I have order a race drive set from lsx concepts it’s in the country but at customs waiting on duty to pay

Well I have done nothing on the car as on Wednesday lifted some gib plaster board and pop went my left lower bicep tendon yip fuck, surgery again  so car on back burner and have to find more help for the work load I have

Hey Gary what alternator bracket did you get from proflow the one I see say’s ls1 does this still work

and I can not believe how much tensioners cost

The Headers will have the same relationship to the subframe they always had… I think if anything building the headers will be easier as there will be tons of room on the drivers side for a change. Just to be clear I’m NOT advocating 50mm spacers just mentioned it as that’s how Holden got around it on the CrossTrac cars, I’d use what ever gives you 10mm bonnet clearance and call it good.

More so in retro spec to ground clearance. I don’t know if you have mentioned it or not but what’s your engineer say? I’m shocked if they say yes. Out of curiosity. What’s a CTSV hat worth? Is the cost difference that much? Bear in mind you could sell you brand new zl1 lid for decent money. ESP to someone in USA. Those guys are always looking for them. Just food for thought. I didn’t want to stuff around with spacers, I didn’t like the idea of them and the potential suspension and steering geometry changes it could make. I was happy to run a small scoop and went with that.

Hey Cava it was the engineer that suggested the spacers in the first place I am not a fan of them either , that’s why I am going to give it another crack with out spacers how much did your one sit up above have you got a photo across the guards of it
