hey guys i got my parts in today! so tommaro i will be installing my AEM cai, and an intense 3.0 pulley. Now i understand i have to remove the blower to change the pulley, but when putting it back on, wut is the proper torque adjustment for it?> if someone can tell me the exact # it would be greatly appreciated, b/c i cant find it anywhere! thnx guys

 

Can I suggest that you get someone to do it for you.

 

Yea, I would have someone r2 the pully for you. I know I'm not gonna chance it.

 

Well thanks for the suggestion guys, but i'm capable of doing it myself. and i'd rather it that way. so if someone has the answer im looking for, i'd appreciate it..

 

Sounds like you don't need to remove the blower. See post from Korax123 below:


Anyone need a pulley installed?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ok after doing the pulley it isn't that bad to do at all. I bought the puller tool so if anyone wants me to swap just the pulley for them I can do it for like $15-20 or donations lol. I should be able to do it on Cobalts without taking off the S/C also.

PM me if you need this done.

 

Honestly, everyone is capable of doing it, but dont do it yourself.... you will need help with it, and it should be someone that knows what they are doing....... my pully took me and my buddy near 6 hours to do, and it should only take about 30 minutes.... the tool may break... like ours did, about 5 times, and we had to improvise......getting the pully off is for sure a one man job... but getting it back on should def. be 2

 

well i am going to have someone with a little knowledge help me, i dont see it being that big of a deal. im not worried about screwing it up, i built the motor for my camaro by myself. and thats alot harder than swaping a pulley. But thanks for the concerns guys. where did u get the pulley tool from that broke 5 times? just wondering. i got the pulley and puller tool from intense.

 

you want to torque the supercharger bolts to 18 lb ft

 

the puller was from my buddy, i dont know where he got it from.... the smaller threaded screws are shitty, they are the ones that broke, and they only send 3......

 

I wasn't tryin to insult, just that the bearing and seal are easily dammaged if it isn't pulled off perfectly. What about a Dealer? At least if they F it up, they can get you a new blower seal.

 

yea i agree...
