VMP's famous FEAD Kit in 8-rib is designed to work with factory 5.2 L Predator balancers (M-6316-M52A or KR3Z- 6312-C) and the stock Mustang GT 5.0 L front engine cover. Save time and money when doing your Predator swap.
The differences in this kit versus our standard 6-rib Street FEAD kit (VMP-SUT018):
- Includes 8-rib front cover idler
- Includes 8/10-rib idlers
- Includes heavy duty belt tensioner (VMP-SUT009)
Works with Predator swaps. SUT028 Includes idlers for an 8-rib belt. Minor clearancing is required of one front cover boss to clear the wider 8/10 rib-idlers.
This kit includes:
- Billet aluminum FEAD bracket with mounting hardware
- Two VMP-60-SM-DB idler pulleys with double row bearings
- Heavy-Duty cast automatic belt-tensioner with VMP-60-SM-DB idler pulley
- 8-rib idler pulley, spacer and bolt for front cover boss
*Your front cover must have the machined idler boss and machined tensioner pad. Early 2011 model year Coyotes lack these features. In this situation install a new front cover.
*You must use the correct balancer and AC clutch pulley
A note about belt lengths with this kit:
- The shorter K080702 belt is recommended with this kit when using the stock 3" Predator supercharger pulley, due to the smaller idler included with the tensioner.
- If the belt is too loose or too tight, the tensioner may make a clicking noise.
