Default Vortech owners please check....

the allen head bolt on the backside of your supercharger cog pulley, mine was VERY loose to where the washer would spin and the cog pulley would shift about 1-2 mm, id hate to know what would happen if this would have slipped off. i tighted it at first just with my fingers because its hard to get anything in there to tighten it, but it was just as loose the next time i drove it, but i finally cut off an allen head wrench to where it would just fit in there. now ive torqued down on it pretty good. this probably wont happen to anybody else but just figured id let you guys know just to check it out.
