    If you are using the stock, then use the one that's currently on your car.

    Don't order from ZZP. Go to Napa and get the Gates belt. I've heard a lot about Gatorback and Dayco etc betls. I needed a belt and a friend asked me to do him a favor of getting the Gates belt.

    The Gates belt looks like traction tape when you first get it. Even after in pictures it looks like traction tape. There's a difference and I'm sold.


    If Dave feels 60% throttle is 100%, what does he tell his wife.

    Moved to the correct section.

    You can use stock SC belts all the way down to at least 3.4 if not 3.3. Anything smaller than would probably require a smaller belt.

    shouldn't he be changing his tensioner if he is using a stock belt??? It will give the belt a tighter fit, thus reducing belt slip.
