The "arm" is the whole motor...check the lower bolt on the front of the engine to the frame.

Try removing the intake manifold and smoothing out the inside. And, as usual, do a plug chop.

How much did the 1/2 Belt cost you, and what kind of belt do you get, like measurements, etc.

Is it worth doing or should I stay stock?

To the others commenting...it's worth a try doing the mods, I've heard of people getting 40 without MAJOR mods and some have had 35 mph out of the box on 86 and 87 sprees, seems like 5 more mph isn't asking too much! Gamemedic, I see someone got the Elite and posted it on the forums. One of these days I will find one closer to me.

Sounds like it might have already been drilled, check with a light.
