Hey guys my supercharger belt broke and i need a new one vortech wants like $60 or $70 for a new one. I tried the local part stores but no one has it. I tried pep boys, auto zone, robbins, advanced, VIP, and napa. They had a 54.25inch belt tried it and i wont fit over the blower pulley. Any one no where i can get a 54.5inch belt in an 8rib?

you should be able to find a Gates belt at most auto stores.

I see you said you tried Napa and did not find it, so I dont want to repeat all the previous posts. Have you tried loosening the head unit to slip the belt over the pulley. Seems like a lot of work I know, but if its all you can find localy for a decent price... might be your best bet.

I went to napa they only had the 54.25 long and it wont fit over the pulleys they say it needs a 54.50 i guess ill have to play with the head unit to get it on or try a 55.
