I am installing a P1SC on a 350 block that will go into a 3rd gen camaro. The head unit mounting bracket that came with the system was incorrect so I purchased the head unit mounting bracket for the 3rd gen camaro install.

There are 3 idler pulleys on this bracket and I cannot determine how to route the belt. I cannot imagine the grooved side of the belt should contact a smooth idler pulley and I have searched threads that indicate the same.

~~~Can anyone provide a photograph of their P1SC install (preferably engine out of car) or a copy of the routing diagram from the installation manual that shows how the belt is routed for the P1SC belt on a 3rd gen system?

I have found photos of installs with engine in the car (on this site and Prochargers), but it is so cramped I cannot get a good view of belt routing.



The system I bought was originally installed on a TBI truck, but the serp system was pre ’88 or something so the original head unit mount would not work, which was a drag because that setup allowed the head unit to be driven right off the stock serpentine belt. That would have made my life considerably easier. At any rate the kind people at Procharger told me they would only send the install booklet for the truck that the system was originally intended for since the serial number on the head unit told them it was for a truck and therefore I couldn’t possibly need the install booklet for a Camaro.
It was like a case study on poor customer service.

Any help appreciated.

i dont have a photo handy, but the bottom of the belt goes around the crank and up over the closest idler pulley to the crank, then above the adjustable tensioner idler, around the blower and under the fixed idler and to the crank

do a search for user novass and procharger tensioner he has pics in that thread with the motor out of the car

 

Gracias-
I finally found it: https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/powe...ght=procharger



That is a pretty nice setup he did- and it answered my question.
