Hello my name is Gustavo and I'm from Brazil ...
I installed a ProCharger F1R in a 1991 corvette, the car has aluminum block brodix, set stroker 6.2, external oil pump, intercooler and many other things)
I installed a set system of a serpentine belt with a belt 8 ribs (Goodyear Gatorback)
The pressure of the car does not reach 10 psi and I see the dust belt pulleys ...
The belt is slipping, I put a tensioner with a strong spring loads more but not resolved
The pulleys are well aligned
I am thinking of installing a timing belt, but I doubt that belt can withstand without breaking.
I have space to install a belt up to 2 inches wide and I'm afraid this is not enough for this engine.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Supercharger: procharcher F1R
7-inch crankshaft pulley
supercharger pulley 4 inches
5:40 ratio supercharger
Max rpm: 7000 rpm
Belt size: 105 inches
My doubt is: what is the best belt to install this system?(brand,size,material)
2 inch wide enough not to break the belt?
Thank you a lot for help
