    Yep, the supercharger snout is too large to fit inside a 2.7 pulley, so it needs to be shaved down for clearance.

    Just enough to look kinda cool.
    I don't think it matters a lot as long as your consistent with oil and oil change schedule.

    Now just throw on some side clearance lamps to go with those identification lamps and you'd be set.

    yea that's a bit taught, there's two brackets just forward from where you took a picture that look like they can be loosened to feed a bit more slack through. Took a picture of one here

    Yeap.
    Had to remove that fwd nut at front leaf assembly to be able to remove and place the rear bolt on the bracket.
    I will try to loosen another clamp I saw above the frame even more fwd up (under drivers rear pass seat) and try sliding some slack to the rear. Hoping that helps.
    Thanks for the pic

    For me it was a slight improvement, until I read that ensuring headlights were properly aimed was important. I had just installed some aftermarket oem headlights so they weren't aimed right. Once I found an empty warehouse at night with a wall I could measure the distance from and properly aim them it made quite a noticeable difference. Pretty happy with the harness.
