I'm a little excited today. Thanks to papasmurf, most of my machined parts are in my hands.
First up is a piece of 1" solid bar machined to be the new idler pulley mount. Lots of extra bar hanging off the end because I don't know yet exactly where it will be going so I'm keeping my options open.

Next is what will the the main mount for the supercharger and the idler pulley. This will be welded into one solid piece and then bolted in between the A/C compressor and the A/C compressor mount.

And the one I the most excited about - the intake adapter. This is a full 70mm inside diameter and will fit all 3" tubing and adapters. You can see how much bigger the inside diameter is than the stock opening, which I will have to port to fit.

I also got a mounting plate for the supercharger, but it's going to need some modifications because of what I need to get done on my supercharger itself.
If anyone is interested in getting similar parts made for a project, let me know. This was all done on a CNC so it can be replicated easily.
