Question about supercharger belt???? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Jose · 09-29-2011, 07:45 AM

I just lowered my pulley to 3.6 with my TVS2300, I am having belt slip, where can I purchase a belt for that size pulley. I have been looking everywhere for belts with no answer??? Please help!!!!

Also, what size of a belt do I need for that pulley???

Thanks!!!!

Belt slip with the 3.6? Why do you think your belt is slipping? Try moving the pulley on the maggie closer to the tensioner to take up some of the slack under boost.

You may want to try our HD tensioner for your application. It has solved many slippage issue's, the complete assembly is $339.

Yes but with this I would have to relocate the catch can? true?

Not necessarily, just fit differently.

You didn't answer any questions... Hd tensioner and catch can. GL

Nice setup.

Finished the install yesterday. Will be tightening the idler pulley tonight. Didn't realize that pulley had any adjustment.

Please excuse my ignorance, but what is a katech MANUAL tensioner?

Never mind, just found it on Google, thanks!!!

OP, You shouldn't have belt slip with the 3.6. Also you cant use a manual tensioner with a supercharger, it can take up enough of the belt slack.

I used the same belt 3.8-3.4 with no issues.
