    With the car jacked up using Jack stands under the a-arms the only play I saw was an up & down from the bellcrank.  Could this be one of my issues? The A-am bushings look pretty cracked as well. 

    Yes!... the play in the bellcrank is normally the major cause for what you're describing...There should be 'zero' up and down play in steering bellcrank....Also, check tightness of pinch bolt holding bellcrank to center pin.

    I had no idea of what it's called.  I just made the only word I could think of by changing 2 letters.

    Pretty much the area of impeller visibile when viewing supercharger from the rear.
