Having just done all this, I pretty much agree with most of what is being said here. In theory the pulleys are easy to swap out due to being secured with 4 bolts rather then being pressed on. But the clearance is so tight when the blower is on the car that it would be VERY difficult at best. My SC came with the wrong pulley and when I asked if I could go ahead and put the SC on the car and then install the correct pulley when it arrived - the answer was wait, and leave the SC on the bench for the pulley swap.
I did cut down an Allen wrench to fit the Whipple idler/tensioner. I worked for a long time getting the Allen wrench correct (length, angle, etc. in order to be able to get it in the bolt head). But then I was able to adjust the tensioner per the method described above by Bill.
