Default Vortech belt change

I have a V-2 Vortech Supercharger on a 2000 5.7 Corvette. My blower drive belt just went south. Does anyone have the procedure to replace this belt. Please, your help is needed. rendyhood@yahoo.com

Thanks

If it is a Vortech system and not the A&A, the instruction manual is here:

The only Vortech dealers are from 30 miles to 300 miles away from me.
I ordered a new cog belt from Vortech today. My speed shop that built the engine went out of business and most shops I tried to call were also
shut down. Lets all re-elect them all...

It has been awhile since I had a Vortech on my C5. To change the main drive belt the aftercooler has to come out if I remember correctly. To change the cogged belt the head unit has to come off.
