Solved- i have a serpentine pulley setup. Anyone want to trade?



Has anyone used a clewitt crankfire trigger wheel and the oem style engine mount. I just put mine up to it and it will hit. If I put washer spacers behind it it should clear but this will push the engine back which will push the shift linkage back and will make the engine be further back in the bay which may mean not a good seal. Anyone dealt with this? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

I just recently purchased a PMO EFI, c.o.p. kit. It's still in the box so I'll check it out to see if I have clearance issues too. I did tell Rasant that it was going in a factory 6 and was told it would clear the mount. I will follow up on Friday.

@gms What is that spacer piece behind the mount?

This is what mine looks like

Souls be enough of a margin it will work, not like you need inches just fractions of an inch. I would go for it. Draw it out in cad, and have it laser cut in the thickness you need

That sounds way more involved then swapping a pulley. Also, I think im missing the other pieces to fully use the serpentine.
