Are aftermarket underdrive pulleys known for throwing belts off easy?
i have a ASP underdrive pulley with correct belt sizes it through the belt haaf way off about 5-8 times the past 6 months when i had the stock pulley on it never did that. well the other day i was going down the road and got on it and it started coming off so i popped the hood and checked and found it was ripped from riding on the lip of one of the pulleys.
im using the gatorback belt.
i also have a aftermarket thunder racing tensioner would this be the cause?
let me know what you think to prevent it...

I agree. The belt should not throw unless a pulley is out of alignment. I would bet the ASP crank pulley is not fully seated. ASP here 4 yrs no thrown belts. Stock tensioner.
