Well, I had gotten everything ready to put on the ported blower and plenum I had gotten. When I started up the car, the sc belt was screeching to the point it started smoking. I cut it off and fought my way through the smoke from burning rubber and found the sc was locked up.
I took everything back off and found the front left bolt for the top had gone through and was hitting the edge of the rotor on that side.
I didn't think the stock bolts should do that. I got it to spin half turns, stopping where the hole had been pushed through.
I've sanded down the edge on the rotor and housing where it will turn freely again. Please tell me someone else has had this happen before.
I will once again try to install it, hope it goes better this time.
