Hey guys, finishing up my Procharger Stage II install on my 2019 GT and I think I may have gotten the incorrect crank pulley. How close is yours to the sway bar? After installing my Procharger Stage II kit, I noticed when the blower belt was routed, the smooth idler pulley right next to the crank pulley was too far toward the rear of the car. When I started it up, the belt was about 1/8" over the edge of the pulley. I reviewed the instructions, and I installed everything correctly. So I put some washers between the stock idler and the Procharger idler and pushed the pulley out in line with the crank pulley. I did a slow datalog for Lund and shredded the belt as I pulled back into my driveway. I bought a new belt, and in order to get it on I had to disconnect the end links on the sway bar and rotate it, and it was still VERY tight between the crank pulley and sway bar. That belt shredded at idle after about 15 seconds. I talked to Procharger tech between the belts shredding and I have the idler pulley installed correctly and the spacer they sent is the correct size. Now I'm thinking maybe I got the incorrect crank pulley? From what I recall about the install, there isn't a way to install it backwards. How close is your crank pulley to the sway bar? Can you get a new belt in between there pretty easily? I'm going to call Procharger again tomorrow and run my theory by them, but I was hoping some of y'all had pictures of how close your crank pulley is to your sway bar.
Kind of a weird picture, but this is with the idler installed correctly without any washers. I put a carpenters square flush with the face of the idler pulley. You can see how much further out it sticks than the crank pulley.
