Default Re: 62mm SRT6 Pulley Available Now

I mounted the prototype scattershield this morning. Seems to fit well. Being a proto, I bent the loop by hand; next go-round should be machine formed.

The intention is to contain pieces of the SC pulley clutch in the event of a catastrophic failure. To save the hood, the oil cooler and the air injection pipe. I chose to make it light rather than heavy. Adding the scattershield adds only 7 or so total ounces (3 for the part and 4 for the bolts and washers )

The only part at this point that bothers me is the hardware. M12-1.5 (the thread of the existing "lift-holes" in the supercharger) is an odd, in between, size. Looking for Stainless button head, or anything aside from the 8.8 std hex head (in a 20mm length) has been fruitless. Perhaps an OE application specific bolt (seat belt bolt, etc) or even a motorcycle dress-up bolt, etc may turn up. In the meantime, this is all I could find.

If anyone has some input as to an actual source for more suitable hardware (button head, low-profile socket head, flange head, or even std socket head ... I would love to hear it.

Cheers,
Chris
