That's what I'm talking about. The idler contacts the return line on the bottom. I need the idler because the radiator hose is in the way otherwise. What's funny is a copied the idea for the idler and the path from Skidd's supercharger, and followed his measurements. I guess his supercharger is just lower than my motor shaft. The pulley should also apply reverse tension if I'm thinking right (should both directions taught) I'm going to try moving the idler some but don't have the motivation at the moment since it would require me completely disassembling everything again. Anyone want to come help? heh

Also here are some extra pics of the idler.
