alright well i have a 2001 vortech aftercooled mustang gt and i just recently put the vortech 3.125 pulley on and i'm having a problem with the belt walking towards the motor...my question is if i buy a 3.10 RR racing pulley will i ever have to worry about this problem or slippage again? i have heard good and bad things about RR pulley such as them shredding belts on lightnings...does anyone have an RR pulley on their vortech here and if so how do you like it...yesterday when i checked my car one of the ribs of the belt had completely came off the pulley so this is cause for great concern...with the 3.33 pulley i had no such problems with my belt so any advice will be greatly appreciated!!!

is your 8 rib setup a rr setup or just regular standard?
