put a section of steel tubing in the hose in the section that rubs.

On the paxton i'm selling there is a bracket that goes over that pulley that probably stops what you are talking about.
it looks like this:
<--3"---->
_________|

and is 3" high as well. there is a notch cut out to attatch it to the pulley mouting bolt behind the bracket.
perhaps you can make a similar part to stop the hose from rubbing... are you using the new hose paxton supplies with the kit?

thanks 89 I figured it had to be something like that, I had a big chunk of a 3" aluminized exhaust pipe. its what I used for my intake system, cut a piece of that in half and drilled a hole in it, looks pretty decent and works awesome.
