    The valve cover gasket is easy compared to pulling the supercharger...:D I am more than happy to help when you want to change it.

    Replaced the supercharger oil in my new to me supercharger. Removed the stock pulley and installed a CravenSpeed 15% pulley. Removed the stock, crappy crank damper and installed the ATI Super Damper. Installed a new belt tensioner and tensioner stop. Installed a new idler pulley. Finally reinstalled the supercharger...now begins the fun of seeing if I remember where everything goes...:D
