more supercharger talk

[truckinwagen]

I'm sure I can get the offset for the pulley to work out(this project has required much more copmlicated things be done) but I wonder about the width between the tabs to mount the alternator.

could you measure inside, and outside the width of the alternator mounting tabs?

Sure, I'll get back to you with the measurements tomorrow.

[truckinwagen]

cool, thanks...

have found that good measurements between bolt holes is really easy, all you have to do is measure between the left, or right sides of the holes(assuming they are the same diameter) and that measurement is the same as between the centers.

I saw a rather clever trick the other day. If both holes are the same size, measure one of the holes and zero the gauge. Now just measure outside to outside of the holes and you have the distance between centers.

that works too, but as my calipers are hard to zero, so I got used to just measuring from outside to inside, which accomplishes the same thing.

looks like the bracket pictured above will work great, and require very little(if any) modification to make work.
I might have to have some bushings made up to take place of the rubber bushings it was designed for.

The space where the alternator pivots is about 55mm.
 An A2, 90 amp,  AC alternator fits great.

Bracket got sent Friday.

bracket and new supercharger arrived today.

I am sooooo stoked, the charger spins freely with no play in anything, and the rotors are so clean it is hard to think that it ran for very long on anything.






and the bypass actuator can has nipples on both sides of the diaphragm, which means that it will take no work at all to make it boost actuated to have a turbo blow through it!



I am really looking forward to shoving this thing on my motor and getting back on the boost!

did they make kits to use that with a g60 bracket

[truckinwagen]

not that I know of, the bracket i will be using will be totally custom.

Did anything ever come of this?
