Default After Day 1, V-1 Install

Here are some pics for you guys. Had a little trouble with the belt and getting the tension off it, but will work on that again tomorrow. Got the bracket and head unit on, with it pointing me towards an intercooler.









What do you guys think? Any tips, pointers, ideas, thoughts.....

you can still do it on there, i did mine that way,just makes it harder because theres not much room to get an allen key in there, but still an easy task.

Just make sure its right. What method are you using to tap your pan? Are you using a punch? drill? what about taking care of metal shavings?
