Im looking for a GatorBack supercharger and inner belt. I am running all stock size pullies and no Auxilliary Idler Pulley. If anyone knows where I can buy both together please let me know. All I can find is Summit Racing selling the s/c one. Thanks.

BTW Yes I posted this in the vendor section.

Go to you local napa or car quest store. They both carry gates belts. I know a lot of people run gator backs but gates is by far a better belt. When you buy a blower the belt that comes with the blower is a gates. We run gates belts at work on big diesel engines and have few problems. Gatorbacks get torn up in no time.

Wow, that is totally false info there! I only used Gatorbacks with my Cobra and NEVER had an issues. A lot of people here use Gatorbacks as well. The only way a Gatorback belt should get "torn up in no time" is if a non-slip upper pulley was installed incorrectly. :dw:

For the inner belt I would use a Gates.
