for people who aren't local to you, maybe you could offer a sort of collateral exchange? like they do with fender rollers, people pay you an extra amount of money, and you hold the money until they mail you back the key, with the bolt and a picture verifying that they took the bolt off?

i mean. unfortunately thats the best any of us can do right?

My idea is to replace the Tamper-proof Bolt with a Grade 8 Hex Head Bolt.

That way, you can switch the pulleys any time you like.

yea, that being the case can't people send you back the security bolt they had on the supercharger just so you know? and a picture?

anyways, i was the one who contacted you..um looks like nobody wants to do it though.

sorry if i brought you back here for nothing man.

Thats what i figured, I hope mine doesnt go im gonna treat it like gold. Good luck with yours. Atleast jwaggz82 gives hope on the stock pulley cause those arent bad numbers.

I can measure it myself, but I would rather have the bolt ready to go once I removed the old one
