This is a work of art and your support has been outstanding.

My question is do these have the proper of set for belt alignment and bore diameter for the bolt and the spacer provided by whipple for the idlers?
Yes they have correct off-set and use Whipples back side spacer and same bolt.

That's what I have, they work perfect and look great, bought 2 sets and changed all smooth pulleys but 1. Also bought the Steeda water pump pulley.

They look kick a**, and I'm sure you dropped some rotational mass as well.

Heading back down to Whipple tomorrow to get the car. They ran it through its paces, cold, warm and hot and no belt noise over the last three days. Anyone still having the problem should have it cleared up with these new spacers and should contact Whipple. Those guys have endless energy to fix any issue and the whole team is great. Looking forward to just visiting there again.

I just installed the new tensioner and had a question I wanted to ask prior to startup. When installing the pulley onto the tensioner I noticed there is a lot more play (lateral movement) where the pulley can move around compared to the old tensioner where the pulley was centered more and had less play. I centered the pulley as best as possible and tightened it but wanted to check if this is normal.

Thanks, yes I did use the new spacers. I just found it odd that there was about 1/8" movement.

Yeah, I know it's different. You aren't the first to notice that so your not alone. Did you get the new tensioner plate spacers?

My thanks goes out to [MENTION=13288]Whipple SC[/MENTION]! :hail: I just started up after the install of the new tensioner and I am chirp free. :D I was initially thinking of going with the short belt and new routing but ended up just replacing the tensioner and stayed with the original belt - Worked fine.
