wish i could,, however, it belt looks like it slightly rubs the whipple aux injector plate, so i havent made up my mind weather or not to test it untill the intake is complete. ill go bolt hunting today though to get it installed correctly

Hey bigguy I would try something like this:

Contact with the sc pulley becomes Very important when you start to go with smaller pulleys. If it slips you might as well not have that small of a pulley
I slip a bit with the 3.5" pulley with a very similar routing that the blue line shows. And I know you will want to run that 3.5" pulley once you are intercooled -it's fast as $h!t
That gray radiator hose can be fudged with a bit. You may have to bend a bit coming out of the water pump neck and then go straight towards the coresupport instead of kind of crossing over where the intercooler piping would run.
Here is a picture that might help you figure out the hose routing. Just run in going straight to the front instead of crossing the pipe area like in this picture.

i tried that way yesterday, and while its possible, the crank and stering pump get hardly any belt contact. the fan pully is what gives the steerring and crank its wrap around.
