ATI harmonic balancer is about to come in and I was wondering what belts people use on it? It is the balancer used for ATI procharger applications. I was told stock belts would work, but also hear of people throwing belts?

 

anybody?

 

Pretty sure mine was the stock length. Just don't get a cheap belt.

 

just make sure the tensioner is new . Everyone was saying get a manual tensioner get one get one . Well i replaced my stock one with a napa store stock one and my belt hasn't jumped a tooth or two at all like it used to . only 430 rhwp here. A friends ta is procharged making 520ish now , detuned from 550 and never a belt problem . Hes auto car im a stick car.

 

Had a cheap belt on mine and got shredded during tuning. Now I've got a better belt and havent had any trouble. Stock tensioner too.

 

What brand is good for belts?

 

Gates and Goodyear Gatorback. Bob

 

gates has a badass new blue belt. the length will depend on the crank pulley, and your blower pulley size. With my D1 and a 7.65 with a 4.13 blower pulley I bought a 42.5'' which was a bitch to get on, but by god it was tight. To keep the belts from jumping you can look into Katech's solid tensioner which has a high lip pulley the belt cant escape. its similar to the pulley aster uses on his bracket accept its anodized black. there is a pic of it on my thread or you can just google it. katech solid tensioner. lashway motorsports used one on brandons procharged build. it was really cheap and looks great up under the hood.

most use gates or napa.

 

I thought we were talking about accessory belts jumping off?

 

my bad. Accessories are for Johnny Depp. haha

 

lol no problem. I already ordered my belt with the pulley off the brute speed website. I got a 5.00 pulley and the belt for it will also work with my 4.50 pulley when I want to up the boost.
