probably doesn't matter because it is a cog system, but the idler pulley next to the supercharger should be on the passenger side of the snout, rather than the driver's side....

Hey DblG how much does one of those setups run ?? That just sounds sick. Also is there any worries about shortening the life of the bearings in the blower by goin Cog ??

There should be no adverse affect on the bearing or it's race. The only time that would be a issue would be if someone over tightened a belt thru a adjustable tensioner of some nature.
Things that could be effected would be (Keep in mind Cogs have been around) the weakest links Belt, the three bolts to the crank, the Aluminum gears, the S/C shaft and on.
Always starting at the weakest link on up the food chain.

Debunk the gossip!

Sorry but we don't recommend cog drives. It voids the warranty! Please don't use the cog systems. There is no slippage with the stock belt except where it is necessary at the shifts.
It's why Ford and GM use "clutch" alternators. Here's a simple analogy. The rotating inertia of the supercharger rotors should not be "stopped" by a cog belt particularly at the shifts where supercharger and engine rpm are high. The engine drops 1500 rpm while the supercharger doesn't. The cog belt then attempts to "hold back" the supercharger. Not a good scenario.

Thank you,
Jim Bell

Mr. Bell have you ever tried running a cog system on your lightning blowers?
