I can't for the life of me seem to get the throttle body intake elbow lined up to the supercharger so I can reinstall the 4 bolts. It is very close but I'm having no luck...

Nevermind I figured it out. It looks like the last person to change the by-pass hoses cut them slightly to long and just shoved it on there which I'm sure is why it was hard to remove. I should probably change the by-pass hoses but I'm going to take my chances as they don't look bad and I want to get it back up and running today.
