Just wondering what belt size i will need to run with my 2.76 upper, and the 4 idler pulleys that i have. It seems that it varies from 74.5 to 75.0 inches. If anyone has this combo can you tell me what size your running with a gates belt. Thanks a lot guys.

I have that combo and I run a stock size 75.1 inch belt. I think the people that are using 74.5 inch belts are notching their tensioner.

do you have any belt slip issues

I don't think I do at all, at least not with the Billetflow snub idler. FYI I run a stock sized 75.1 inch GATES green stripe belt. Not a stock motorcraft belt. I really like the Gates belt, It looks great, and I get very minimal belt dust.

I wouldn't get one smaller than the stocker.. I only have one 100mm idler and I'm on the stock belt with no slip
