    I have a question. I just got everything all bolted back on the motor and now I'm trying to run my belts. I got everything from a supercharged bonniville. Only came with the coil pack bracket and the extra tensioner and idler pully
    I have no place to put them. Should I go to auto yard n get some parts off a gtp or what
    Cause I'm stuck right now.

    Remove your existing coil bracket and dog bone mount and install the bonnie version that you have

    Did that but all the pictures say that I need the other 2 pulleys. Unless it only runs from the balancer to supercharger to pulley on coil pack bracket. I'm lost on what to do.

    Yes I have them. No place to put them. Just pulleys no brackets or anything.

    Not right this second. I figured out what i was missing. Im missing the tensioner for the pulley that goes under the coil pack, but also still have no clue where the 3.5 smooth idler goes. I can have pictures tomorrow afternoon. But ill prob have got the parts by then. Hopefully. Been a few days now and still have not drove the dam car lol.

    I think the bracket in the bottom of this pic is what he's after.

    Ah, the standoff for the lower idler.

    Be prepared for coolant to come flowing forward when you remove that one bolt in your block.

    Make sure you grab the bolts with the stand off. Also use sealant on that bolt.

    Ya i have that thing. Just no clue where to bolt it up. It seems like theirs no room what so ever.

    Also seems like it sticks out to far.

    Look on the side of the engine.

    there is one bolt head and two holes down there.

    remove that one bolt and use the other two holes.
