This thread cracks me up, LOL! To the OP, it will be worth it in the end, believe me! At least you don't have fouled injectors or a leaky intercooler under the blower like I did with my [used] kit (the latter set me back a week and a half, waiting for Magnuson to send a replacement; 10 more days of rental car fees weren't fun either!).

No I'm here, just biting my tongue on some of the comments!

dan0617...yes you are right, those things you described would be a HUGE, HUGE, H U G E problem!

fldrummer...it was worth it and now that its been ~36hrs since I brought my car home, I can just shrug my shoulders about it.

Iam Broke...your advice was worth its wait in gold because my friend was able to tighten the crank bolt and move forward

Ryne@CMS...my next day off is Tuesday and I want to send you a picture of our serpentine belt set-up so you can have a look at it. We followed the routing pattern of the Magnuson manual and/or hood sticker and I don't know how you were able to use the belt that came with it.

sycraft...I want to show my mechanic friend your picture. He'll get a laugh out of it.

I have thick skin and I can see the reason for some of the comments (sort of LOL) but in my defense, were we working with time deadline and to be so close and yet still so far away can get to ya
