Personally I would like to see the DD/flip/secondary drive guys logging RPM vs. voltage to prove to me the 4 rib isn't slipping.
The idea is great but having both my pumps wired to the alternator its not very reassuring to have the belt slip there

^^^ thats what I mean, some guys say they have held the belt, I never have yet. It's very clear in the logs on everycar. Voltage drops like a rock to 11-11.3 as soon as the throttle fully opened. C5/C6 doesn't matter, and the belts were adjusted properly.
As soon as the pass was over, right back to 13.x, you would never even know it if it wasn't being logged.

I just went through 3 or 4 of my old logs, and on a couple of them, I did see the volts drop to 12.4-12.5v at 5000-6800 rpms... So I guess I get some slip SOMETIMES... The log I posted above was the last full highway blast I did so... Its not like the belt stretched or wore out of something...because it didnt slip that time. Maybe its a heat thing on the belt or something as well...
Guess thats something else I'll have to buy in the future as well...LOL

I dont know yet because I have to make it first...
The C6 set up is $950 with all the idlers-belt and new AC compressor so it would be close, problem is I would need your balancer and jack shaft idler to machine the extra ribs into them.
Thats honestly why we do not promote this much because there's a lot of back and forth down time involved if the car is already together. If we are sending out a complete set up then it's no problem.

I install the 4040477 gaterback 4 rib belt and a new tensioner for the 4 rib and the results?? No belt slippage with AC on but when I go into boost the AC will be off. Thanks to everyone for the input.
