Alternator question I plan on mounting the alternator in a non standard position. I was wondering if a 3 rib belt would have enough grip to power the alternator without slipping. I think the only reason for the 6 rib on the serpentine is for the power steering. Let me hear your thoughts
Why do you want to go to 3 rib? Why not stick with the 6?
I think the key to slipping is getting enough wrap on each pulley. I imagine the width is more for overall strength. But I'm guessing on that.
