i've read the how-to done by super-street but after reading i have some questions;

what type of tools do i need to get the stock pulley and hub off?
and vice versa
what tools do i need to get the the pulley and hub back on?

is there anything else i should be aware of before tackling this project?
thanks in advance!

 

i took the supercharger off (only 4 bolts) and took it to a machine shop. they were able to press the old pulley off and push the new hub back on. that was the only thing i didnt do myself and only costs about 15 bucks for labor. on a scale from 1-10 im about a 5 on the mechanically inclined scale, and installing stage 2 was a full afternoon job for me (including getting the pulley taken off and the new hub put on).

 

yea that's a good idea man, that never even crossed my mind.
thanks

 

ZZP makes a Gen 1 and Gen 2 pulley puller. The pulley puller and also put the new pulley back on. Its a great tool, I just used it over the weekend its so easy to put and take off pulleys.

 

yea i saw that they had these for rental, but really wasn't wanting to pay $45 + shipping for it.
were there any other special tools that you guys needed for the installation?

 

have it pressed off by a machine shop
then press it on with a gm power steering pump installer
available at autozone for rental
dont press the pulley on it can cause major damage

 

what? haha

 

Can I get a link to that How-to post?

 

i found it on here, but there is the same thing on the internet.it's actually a write up done by Super Street.

when he says press it on its actually having it "screwed on". the end of the supercharger is actually threaded and you "press it" on that way. i know what im sayings is not very clear so if anyone could post a pic that would be amazing.

 

so it's the hub is "pressed on?" not the actually pulley right?

 

correct. the hub is pressed on. the actually pulley just bolts up using 5 bolts. that way its really easy to change out pulleys

 

alright gotchya. well just sent out my PCM today so it'll be next week before i can really get into the actual work process.
