Default Belt Length?
For some reason I found a couple different lengths when searching the part number. Its a Gates 25-060900 from an ECS kit.

I was considering trying out a Gatorback belt but wanted to make sure I know the correct length. Maybe I should just stick with what I've been using.

We use the k060888, but we send them out with a k060891 because we have had complaints that not only DIY'rs, but shops cant get them on. I don't personally understand this phenomenon, but if it was my own car I would use the 888.

Doug;

What would you recommend on a 3" pulley on an enforce? I have the 599 kit with the 3.5" pulley but I purchased a 3" from you folks and was going to install next week.

Thanks much

Sorry I'm not as up to speed with Eforce belts, I would refer directly to them on that one. My guess would be the next size down from what comes with the kit though.

So I must be way to long with 060900.

Fighting with the belt will give me something to do while waiting on the intercooler.

The same belt will work fine with that pulley.

Wont make a difference, but check to see if you have a 3.25" pulley or 3.5". The 3.5 will work with the 900.
