Supercharger brackets

I purchased a Paxton SN2000 supercharger. I started installing it and found there are 3 brackets missing. The upper 2 support brackets and the lower one. I called the person I purchased the kit from and he said that Paxton did not use these brackets. He said Paxton told him to run it without the brackets and it would be fine. The person I purchased the kit from said they never got the car tuned right for the supercharger but I am starting to think he kelp throwing belts. Anyone have a SN2000 and did your come with the support brackets? I called Paxton and left a message but I have not heard back. Anyone?

My Paxton kit had support brackets and I CAN SAY they made a big difference...the bracket was flimsy before adding the steel supports...I think you are right about throwing belts....HOWEVER the brackets were Hardly complex pieces...You could easily fab your own or have some made...

Thanks for the reply. I knew the supercharger would not bolt up correctly without the brackets. The spacers would not fit snug. I still have not heard from Paxton so I guess I will have to fab some..
Thanks again.

Anyone know were I can purchase support brackets for a SN2000 Paxton supercharger? I have not heard back from Paxton. If not I will fab some. I just don't have the time with all the other mods I am doing right now. The wife is not happy because I am not getting her honeydo list done around the house lately. I think I am doing things in the correct order tho.

Thanks Tom. I found the support brackest in Cali. They will be here Monday. I am hoping to have the install completed by Tuesday. If anyone needs brackets post or email me and I will get you the information. I don't have it here in front of me or I would post it. Thanks for the help guys.
