Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10

I don't have any issues with it now that it's on and running. Quality or otherwise. It does the job and hasn't made me notice anything yet *knock on wood*, so it seems to be working great!

My only issue was the belt supplied was pretty tight. It's not a stretch belt like the factory, but I couldn't slip it over the crank pulley and compressor with the compressor mounted. I had to pull the compressor off, put the belt on, then bolt on the compressor. I may be able to use a slightly longer belt, but I didn't want it to be too loose. And since I don't own one of those fancy tools made specifically for the stretch belt application, I just unbolted the compressor to install the belt.
