Yesterday I noticed that there is a squeeling noise under my hood i'm almost certain that it has something to do with the belts. I had UD pulleys installed a little over a week ago. The noise does change with engine RPM. Has anyone had this problem? Maybe I need to get the belt replaced or re-torque the crank pulley. Damn!!!

Luckily I haven't experienced that problem when my Steeda U/P were installed. It may be worth your while to start with the crank pulley and see if you can snug that baby up a bit more.
Just my 2 cents....:thumbsup:

Check the Alternator pulley. It is the toughest on to snug up. You almost need an impact wrench to get it right. It's just hard to hold a pulley you're trying to tighten a bolt against, with a shaft that wants to spin. ;-)

Who me??;-)

I'll let the cat out after we get finished.

FWIW 8.64 @ 82.25 & 13.405 @ 102 was with 3:73's Steeda pullies & TA, Densecharger on stock tires. Which in my opinion caused my biggest problem on the 2 & 3 shift. Spun both kinda hard. 13.30's weren't out of the question for the way it was. My plan now is to use the power I have more efficiently.
