    Did your idler bracket come with that nut/bolt or did you replace the stock one with that?

    Nice job on the snout

    I’m currently getting the pulley milled up by my father in law who had a metal lathe. He is making a 2.5”.
    I don’t have the fuel pump at this point as when I spoke with the guy who is going to dyno it, he said to wait till he has it on the dyno and then he can control how much fuel goes in. If it’s not enough then he will put in a new pump.

    Pretty happy with how the snout cut went. The die grinder cost me $50 including the cutting bit for it. Took me around 2 hours from start to finish. Would have taken less time as I had to keep waiting for the compressor to charge up as these die grinders use a lot of air. But got the job done for $50 and got to keep the die grinder afterwards. Bonus. FYI for anyone wanting to do it this way...Just need to be patient and not force the die grinder. Little bits at a time.

    Question for the catch can gurus. Can I route my catch can return to intake here instead of the downward facing port on the underside of the blower. And move this cap to that port?

    Here's my Roush tensioner installed and sitting about 1/2" from the fan clutch. It seems one good belt hop and they could potentially be contacting.

    Anyone else with a Roush notice this?

    I may experiment going back to a 70" belt to get more clearance here.

    Good to know. I'm doing my roush soon. Did you go with the 70mm double bearing?

    Ridden in it? Tell us more

    I thought the stock crank was good to ~600hp

    Edit* My statement was incorrect. You are correct. No sleeves and stock crank, as of uploader's last post 1 year ago.  As well as a T56 Magnum.
