I tried a gatorback and hated it. They are the worst belt for slip because all those extra grooves in them makes for less friction surface for the belt to grab.
Oh yeah? Hm. I might as well grab one of those, as well. My next steps would be to look at the tensioner and make sure the belt is riding the pullies/idlers correctly. We aligned everything to a close tolerance, but I remember the belt riding very close to the edge of one of the idlers.
