Default BDL OFFSET

Finally bought a bdl TF-2000, havent started to install it and I already regret buying it. Ive tried calling them 5 times, being on hold at least an hour each time. My problem is, I am running a primary offset of 1". DO I need a pulley with a 1" offset, or does the stock pulley mount that cames with it have a offset already, and if so what is it, ( ie if the stk offset is 1/2" than I need to buy a 1 1/2" pulley offset).
I may just return this to BDL as there customer service SUCKS. I will definately never buy another one of there products.

OK, I figured it out. The tf-2000 comes with a 1/2 in offset built into the pulley insert already, so if you have to run a 1" offset at your primary, you need to order a 1 1/2" pulley insert kit. Hope this may help someone in the future.
