Hey guys,

I've got an extended full flow that blocks the pulley from fitting in all the way. Is there a trick and a way around this? Do I have to get a different pulley?

Thanks in advance for your input.

The pulley is hitting the oil pump even without the tin installed. Is there a spacer that can be installed?

I believe the pulley is an Empi style.
