[QUOTE="dogmush, post: 4232115, member: 43147"] I'm still figuring out these superchargers, so if these questions are stupid, please bear with me. I was getting on the interstate today and playing with the car and I missed fourth gear while (attempting) powershifting. The car tapped the rev limiter, and then the Alt. light came on. That was it. I was already out of the throttle when the light came on. I babyed her home thinking about all the bad Alt. threads I've seen in here, but when I popped the hood to look I was like, "Huh, isin't there supposed to be a belt on that blower?" Apparentlly my blower belt disintigrated somewhere towards the top of third gear. No big deal, I had a spare in the trunk. Just slapped it on. (by the way, that's a really crappy belt to change) So on to the questions. 1. Do you think hitting 6800-7000 would fragged the belt? 2. Do these blower belts have a shorter expected lifespan then a standard serpintine belt? If so what is it? 3. Is this the kind of thing I just want to go buy another one and keep in the trunk again? If so what brand? (I had a Gatorback, but it came from the previous owner) FYI, I have a 2.80 upper and RR idlers Thanks for the help. [/QUOTE]
