15 mm socket, ratchet, jack--if you cant shimmy under the car, zip ties--for the tranny cooler lines.

And flashlight if it gets dark. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

If you have a lid you can do it from the top.

Remove the alternator bolt, remove the clip from the tranny lines, zip the lines up out of the way. Install belt. Install alternator bolt.

Good luck and have fun. Post times before and after belt swap. I'm curious. I've heard of a tenth but I gained nothin.

Later, Stu

Ya know, last time we raced was at Cecil and we both got bests of 12.32 or something....
I think you have surpassed that Hahaha.
I'll be lucky to see a 12.30 at MIR
