Default DIY Supercharger install...First pic's on 83' 928

I just wanted to post the first pictures of my S/C install. I am mounting it in the location where the A/C was. I just have it Tack welded and will do the final welding and finishing the next couple of days.
Let me know if you guys have any suggestions while I am at this stage.

Thanks,
Oscar

Maybe it's the angle of the picture, but it looks like your pulleys won't line up.

How do you plan to route the air passages?

The pulley's don't line up yet. I need to weld a spacer to the pulley to bring it out about 1". I am going to run the pressure side up and towards the front on the passengerside of the plate, I need to take about 3" off right past the hole that bols the plate to the A/C bracket and that will be enough room. I used 1/2" plate. A little thick but that was what they used on the S/C when it was made for the Mustang that it came off of.

If the stock bracket was 1/2" it had to be aluminum.
