Will need a bolt, the pulleys, and a damper if Mark has one just for giggles.

Well, Human factors in general aviation taught me about the error chain.

Im gonna break it right now.

If I rush this..it'll lead to other issues.

Rent car..make wheels someone else's problem for $40/day. (in the end, way cheaper than feeding a supercharger E85)

HUH... ok then, guess we are not showing your car for this one.

Well since Jeff will not have his car there, I will bring a complete kit with me. So if anyone wants there car supercharged while I am there, let me know. I can do a tech session on the install as it only take s a few hours, most of which is consumed by changing the injectors and installing the shark tuning PEMS. Dropping in the supercharger and mounting it into place only takes a few minutes and would make a great tech session. That's the most entertaining part, and usually what everyone wants to watch.

I will be in town until Tuesday, so that will also give us some nice extra time to shark tune and make sure everything is perfectly dialed in Sunday and even Monday if needed.

Standard M18 Spark plug thread chaser is the same pitch/size - $5 from HF apparently.

Jeff,
Sorry to hear about your car problems. Make sure the car you rent is big enough for your new replacement windshield that was supposed to be installed Saturday.
