Be better to leave it with multi pk belt instead of the V pulley imo.

stu clark modded his c1j to run a poly vee belt and id guess added a bracket and tensioner into the mix, rather than tension off the alternatort..:)

The later c series lumps have 3 or 5pk setups from memory, the water pumps are always on ebay dirt cheap....however you only need it on a lump thats going to be revving 8k+ on a regular basis. I rev mine right off the scale all the time and have never thrown a belt with the campus pulley setup.

:agree: everyday atleast 5 times over 7k :D threw one a few weeks ago but the belt was split frayed and old so was my own fault lol.
