Belts walking off
I'm having a weird problem on my Vortech, where the belt is walking off (twords the front of the car).
Anyone else experience this? I'm not sure what the deal is..
It does it at like high RPM pulling. But I can't get it to do it in the
bay with me reving it.

It sounds like your bracket is flexing when the blower is creating boost, it not doing it when your just sitting there revving up the engine because there is no load on the engine to create the restriction needed to make boost...

bracket flex is notorious, some guys even build there own to avoud the problem. I'm thinking of having mine recut in hardened steel.
