Who on here even with the stage 2 belt still gets slippage with the 2.8 and stock tensioner??

 

there shouldnt be slippage

 

You shouldn't get any slippage, untill you drop to a 2.7 or less!

 

I'm not sure ... I've heard of a few 2.8s slipping. Key words are it shouldn't slip ....

 

adj tensioner ftw

 

make sure the belt is routed right specially by a/c compressor that would sound like squek if not installed correctly

 

Just buy an adjustable one ... it will save you headaches in the end. Also if you plan on getting a smaller pulley in the future, you will still need it.

 

mine doesnt slip with the 2.75 on it....

 

should be fine.....I ran a 2.85 and a 2.7" on stage 2 belt, no slippage.

 

well i found a crack in the lip of my stock tensioner pully, and theres a sharp edge. im thinking this had something to do with my torn belt. so i ordered a tensioner with a bigger pully, it sholud take care of any if there was slippage.

 

yep, that would do it

 

when I start my car I get a fast pulsing sqeek. it does it when the engineis cold. but once I have been dring it around for a while you can't hear it. butif I ope the hood I can stil hear it a lil bit... know what it is?

 

slight slippage??

ok guys a thinking question.....if i got a 2.8 pully (stock SC pully is 3.5 i think) and a 3 in idler(the stock is 2.5 im told) thats a .2 inch diffrence by the time everything cancels out. could i run a stock belt? would the tensioner move enuff to take up .2 of an inch????
