You can run the poly belt very tight. The aluminum gears wear out, which makes slipping more of an issue. If it's been slipping a lot, you've probably worn the gear out and need a new one.

The car will light the tires up some times but other times it I can still bogg it down in my other car with the higher gearing it is next to impossible to bogg it down. Right now I hear the belt slipping from a dead stop when I really get on the gas... I was wondering what is your thoughts about going to a chain. How tight can I make the poly can it be too tight.. I was told that the poly was faster for several reasons. The poly does not have as much drag as the chain.. Also the poly does not have as much vibration. __________________________________________________________________ Switch to Netscape Internet Service.
