I took the mounting bracket to my favorite fabrication shop today in order to have it cut to fit the back of the supercharger. They ended up having to cut off the entire cross piece (which I had especially made for the back of the blower bracket to strengthen it and allow for the installation of slots where the bolt holes had been) because the cooling fins of the M 90 still crunched up against the bracket, rendering the slots I had installed to align the blower pulley essentially useless . . .
I've spent an hour grinding down three of the back cooling fins and it now fits on top of the bracket, but just so. I'll have to use some washers to raise the supercharger up by a few millimeters in order to utilize the back slots as they were intended to be used! Hopefully I can align the pulley properly when I'm done . . .
What a pain!
I'm hoping to reinstall the mounting bracket tomorrow afternoon and check to see if the supercharger fits properly when I'm done.
