Vortech pulley

[Cobragixxer9994]

I have a 99 cobra and i Ran into a problem. I put a 3.33 pulley on my vortech v2 and the edge rubs against the alternator housing. Didnt do it till yesterday when i took it out to put gas in it. I have had it idling before now with same pulley no problems Anyone have this problem before

Is it on backwards.. some pulleys have a ridge on them that goes on one side versus the other

Its on the same way my old pulley was

Is this a new install or just a new pulley? I want to say I remember having to clearance my alternator for one of my blower installs. But I think that's when I did an 8 rib swap.

Just a new pulley

1. Is that belt riding on the lip of the pulley? Doesn’t look flat on it. Could be it’s not aligned correctly

2. The bracket could be flexing a little and causing it rub when gassing it

Yes its seated on the pully grooves not the lip i thought that too but i double checked i ended up unbolting the alternator and pushing it back a little not sure but it seemed to work

This is an alignment issue. I would pull it off, make sure nothing is loose including the alternator and reinstall.
