What rotation is it, clock wise, or counter clock wise? If it is from a 5.0Land not from a 4.6, is should be a clock wise, so it should be good to go, as it is. How much did you pay for the thing?

Thanks.

That would get it turning the right way, but I'm pretty sure you could never get enough "traction" from the back side of the belt to keep it from slipping. There is quite a load on the belt and pulley when your making boost.

Well if you look at the pics, my engine rotates clockwise and the way the blower is it spins counter clockwise. I payed $1000 for it

Did you visually verify this by pulling the filter off and looking at the fan while spinning the pulley?

The pics don't show much, like I said before, if it is from a 5.0L, it is clockwise rotation, and 4.6 is counter clockwise rotation. You should have good boost. Pull the filter, and intake tube off, run engine, to see what end is blowing, as stated earlier.

Let us know what you find.

Paxton is no help, except to buy the proper one, if I can't reverse the pulley and keep it from slipping, then i'll sell it and buy a turbo.
