if you have a 3v 5.4 you may need to remove the mounting boss to the lower right of the water pump, the oversize pulley will come in contact with it. i removed an idler pulley and used a grinder to cut off the boss and grind it smooth. COVER THE ENGINE when you do this, the alum dust could be detrimental to many parts, esp the alternator, air intake, etc.

Dont cut it off! Just grind it off enough on the side for the pully and belt to clear... dont cut it off.
