Talking Re: supercharger clutch noise

The S/C clutch engauges when you go above about 1800 rpm and it stays on until you stop moving or coast for over about 30 seconds.

There are a few that dont believe this, to check this out get a bud in the driver seat to put on the foot brake NOT PARKING and in gear, torque it up to about 1800 Rs and you will see the clutch turn on and go OFF when the reves are dropped. THe wheels are not moving, that kicks the S/C off.

THe stock clutch surface is not too big and it can slip if there is not enough material and tension to cause it to "lock Up"

The code 3 change was way easy to install and the bearing comes with it too.

Clutching at the truth, Woody
