[QUOTE="jaxbusa, post: 15877136, member: 175253"] Everything is moving along slowly. I’ve had a few time consuming issues but nothing major. First is that I didn’t have the proper size tap and punch. I feel like they could’ve thrown in the tap for a few extra bucks. The instructions say to punch out the hole to about 9/16 and tap to 3/8. I scratched my head and read it a few more times. As you will find out, it’s NPT thread. This is normal and the instructions are correct. My tap has a recommended size hole printed on it of 37/64, which is just bigger than 9/16. I marked my punch with a marker and began making a hole in the oil pan. For those of you that have never done this, it feels all sorts of wrong. [ATTACH=full]1480249[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1480256[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1480257[/ATTACH] The second issue was a pulley that was suppose to be mounted to the supercharger bracket was hitting a bolt. [ATTACH=full]1480251[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]1480253[/ATTACH] I went ahead and changed all of my idler pulleys out while I was there and found that the pulley from the tensioner was different and would clear the bolt.
