Rotating procharger

Just installed a p600 on my LT1. I rotated the blower 180 degrees, done away with the intercooler and run straight methanol inj. only prob is now I cant get the belt tight enough cause rotating it lowered the pulley. The tensioner doesnt make enough contact to tighten the belt properly. Massive slip. Not sure if the SDCE setup will solve the problem. Has anyone heard of anyone else with this problem? Whats the cure? A homemade tensioner perhaps?

Try www.ls1speed.com they make a billet tensioner. their Blown car had a problem with belt slippage too. Granted they went to a cog-drive, but still.

Check the site... that should help.

If you flipped the blower so the transmission top is now at the bottom, I hope you reclocked the oil system as well. This needs done or it will not survive.
