1st one show's were he needs to clearance the block. I installed the SC 6 times before getting right tension. Install with belt little loose, as you tighten the bolts the plate will flex and tighten it all up.

The adjuster arm:
Once its all installed, start the car and adjust the arm as it idles. Get the belt to track to the front of car side of the pulley. When you get on the gas the SC will flex a little and belt tracks center under load.

Key to all of this is the support brace, the ones in home depot are to long, almost have to find Hex piece of aluminum and tap it out. Remember one side is Right Hand Threaded, one side is Left Hand Threaded. That way you turn the shaft and it adjusts, add lock nut at ends.

Hope this helps. Don't solder the MAF Extensions, changes the ohms. Need to cut a sheet of sheet metal and attach it to the inside of the front bumper and bend it up under the air filters. It does 2 things. Blocks rain and wet from going in filters. Also blocks direct air flow in the intake. MAF sensors are to close to the filters, when air is force in by wind it will cause a positive air flow. MAFs have hard time reading it and put car in limp mode.

When you dyno it, test it out. Put the fan in front of grill and turn it on high, you wont be able to get a baseline to start tuning from. Each pull will be different. The sheet metal blocks the force of the direct airflow and allows you to run consistent pulls to get your base line to tune from.
