Is Marcia going to be able to get the grease stains off the underarms of your shirt? |

Thanks again marino for hosting mod day. Couldn't ask for a better place. Thanks to those that helped me with the pully, plugs, and stat and lending your tools.
As for my gatorback belt not fitting...........I'm NOT the only one. Actually another member had the same problem I had but he said PFYC sent him the wrong one. I asked if it were a 660, he said "yup." I'm confused? The belt that was sent to me is 4060660 6PK1675. It SHOULD have fit. Marino's fit, the guy with the 04 GP had not probs. Any ideas? _________________ Adam

Can we safely assume that you were threading it around the proper pulleys in the correct fashion? |

Not hard to do since it took three L36 owners to install the belt on Sean's car. |

Many thanks to Marino for providing us shelter from the rain. I had a great time, also thanks to Mike and scott and anyone else for letting me borrow some tools, next time I won't, as my friend put it "Come to surgery without a scalpel" or something like that. Well everthing went well with the KYB & Springtech install except for the fact that I should have bought and installed some adjustable camber bolt kits before in did everything else, now I have to spend friday uninstalling and reinstalling the new bolts to get the car adjusted , oh well. It was great to finally put a face to the posts and I will be to more of these I promise. Also for all the people who wanted to know where I got the LED's for my door handles from heres the site http://www.led-lights.co.uk/led-blue.htm the part number you want to get is YM-BV5S15Y E-mail the guy to get the exact price and shipping cost before ordering. Thanks again for everyone who helped me out along the way. |

no, his tensioner was way out even with the stock belt on. Normally when you release the tensioner the stock belt slips right off but even the stock belt was hard to get on and off. _________________ 1998 Silvermist GTP Coupe

If the stock belt was tight, Then there a good chance. the pullies arn't the stock size. Somone replaced at least one with a larger one.
of topic but. I'm know running a bigger tencioer pulley. 3.5 smooth over the stock 3inch. I think thats 76mm to a 101mm on the box? And a smaller idler (on the coil braket) So the belt isn't parelle anymore, to/form the SC. It almost touches, but seams to work good. Thats with the big 3.1 pulley once I get some time to drive the car. I'll put the 3.0 and 2.8 on and get over 10 PSI WOT LOL. I'll have to see if the belt will still not rub on it'self then? |
