5. Install the bolt assembly on the A/C bracket (previously drilled in the disassembly section), using the
lock nut provided.
6. Pull the tension pulley back with a pry bar carefully and install the fan belt. If the belt does not fit
using this routing, check to see if after-market under-drive pulleys have been fitted on any of the
accessories or the crankshaft, if so you may have to also use an after-market belt.
7. Check the pulley wheel for alignment with the other pulleys so that premature belt wear does not
occur. With one eye, carefully align the front side of the pulley with the front side of the other
pulleys. If the new pulley is not lined up properly and is too far in, use the arbor shims included with
the kit to go between the aluminum sleeve and the pulley wheel, effectively pushing the assembly
outwards.
ATTENTION: Use extreme caution when lifting and positioning engine assembly. Never get underneath
an engine hoist. A couple of extra people come in handy at this point in the build-up. It's easier
to roll the car under the engine/trans than to roll the engine into the car.
TOOLS: Engine hoist,
saw, combination wrenches, and friends.
PARTS: Transmission mount /hardware (FFR# 13661), Engine and transmission.
