Finny

It is a Micro-V type but it's probably marketed differently in Australia.

Here is the Gates link http://www.gates.com/automotive/dist...s_hd/index.cfm See how you go here.

This is their race type belts which are made the same way: http://www.gates.com/brochure.cfm?br...cation_id=5061 Same construction different color. Not sure if our size is available for this application.

Let us know if you find anything interesting...

So no one installed this kit yet...common guys...I was expecting to some feedbacks by this time...

Victor...Is everything OK...my goods are ready ???

Finny was spot on, as usual. No way to do it without fan shroud removal, which actually wasn't as bad as I thought (shroud remove)

Everything coming along. Got some errands to run this PM so hopefully have her back together Thursday.

vrus

LOL.. Your "Goods" are ready.. sent you an email.. Check & reply.

Jim.. Everything go ok? The belt should have K080545HD printed on it..

We finished the installation, everything went to plan. However, the stumbling block was the belt.

Rocket's car has the Evotech 178 mm pulley.


I will keep you guys up to date after we complete our measurements and purchase a new belt.

Jakpro1

I snagged both sizes larger. Their was a 55 and a 56. The 55 still wouldn't fit, but the 56 slipped right on. Gates Part# is K080560HD

Glad to hear everything went smooth!

AdamG@NorCal

Thanks Jim!!!

By the way how did your install go?

AdamG@NorCal

Post install pictures

ROCKETW19

thanks bro!
adam looking good buddy, when is the new belt comming in? im verry curious of the final dyno.

Jakpro1

Nice and smooth, just the belt issue.

Can't wait to see the dyno #'s. Funny, I am mostly interested in those A/F ratios more than hp.

AdamG@NorCal

Thanks bro!

We are awaiting some measurements from Finny/Vrus. Will probably get the gates belts tomorrow.

Looks like the bottom right pulley is on backwards It probably works the same, just does not look right.

What was the problem with the belt? I'm having mines installed on Monday.

SleeperX

Victor, I thought I wouldnt' have a problem with a pulley that was anywhere from 175-180mm. Do I also need a new belt?

E55 RUSS

Victor

I sent you an e mail 3 days ago from my other e mail...


Check PM please...


Hope I wont have any BELT ISSUES also cause Russia is no US or Canada....

I was unable to find Dayco belt for ASP pullies...Dayco doesnt supply such belts to European market...

We need to get this 100% right...and I need a spare belt for sure

Finny

For those that had a shorter belt "Sorry!".

I originally set this kit up for a 175mm pulley but didn't take into account the water pulley as it appears that these alter in size as well.

All belts returned to Victor will be exchanged for the next size up.

Again, sorry for the inconvenience!

E55 RUSS

So which belt would I need for ASP pullies ???

SleeperX

Finny,
Can you tell us which belt size/part number we need. If it is only $20-30, it might make sense for me to just pick up a belt in the US, as opposed to having to deal with the shipping back and forth between US and Canada..
Unless of course Victor wants to put a new belt in the mail for me..

Finny

It appears to fit some but not others due to water pump pulley sizes.

Jakpro seems to have solved it by adding an extra inch.

As I said earlier, mine is a 175mm so it must be the water pump pulleys that vary in size.

vrus

Frank... It looks like it depends on the water pump pulley.. If it turns out to be too short, you pick up a belt locally, I'll cover the cost and you can just ship back the one you are getting with the kit.

So far we know the following combinations DONT work:

- Kleemann water pump pulley + ASP Crank pulley
- Evotech 175mm pulley + Evotech water pump pulley



Mike.. Never received anything in Hotmail.. I sent you back a PM.

I will get you an extra belt with the kit.

SleeperX

Thanks Victor!

vrus

Sooooooooooooooooooo ..... How are the Pythons doing???? I was waiting for an update in the airbox thread.... Someone has been slacking...

SleeperX

Pythons are very nice.. Very well done. Thanks.
I haven't driven my car in weeks though, so I have no data to provide.. I will be putting the belt wrap on my car in the next week.. Then I will have some data to provide..

Hey Victor,

Please send me the belt that should go an a COMPLETELY STOCK PULLY set. As you know, I have stock pully's and will not upgrade until later. At the point in time I upgrade, I will consult with you on which size belt to get or others on the board who have already installed. Now everyone get them on and update us ALREADY!!!

Thanks

Roland
