I think I will do the newest A&A setup as ECS doesn't do the cog anymore.

​​​​I do already have an IW balancer
I e-mailed A&A, but does any one know if the A&A balancer has the blower hub option?
The balancer I currently have does and I know it uses a different front main seal.

Also if anyone is intrested in the 8 rib IW balancer mine has 5.2k miles.

I have the blower hub on mine but I bought it all new, however I don't see why they couldn't use your old hub and swap shells or have your current shell cut to fit the extra 4 rib belt for the jackshaft

Want to do a flip drive/ direct drive setup. I sent an email to ECS about there Flip drive setup, but heard Cog belts can be troublesome to get right.

​​​​Wanting to get some feedback on different setups.

I’ve been thinking about getting the A&A version but their website says it will only work with their 8 rib balancer and I’m running a 10 rib ATI kit with their newer Procharger bracket.

Anyone have part numbers for what needed to do the 6 rib a/c bracket conversion?
