i had a gatorback once...lasted less than a mile.

 

Gates.

 

Lot of Goodyears haters... :-)

Ran a Goodyear for 20k miles with the stock tensioner. Made sure my pulleys were lined up and put on the tightest belt I could get over the tensioner from the very start and never had a problem. I think a lot of people run their belts too loose and over-tighten the alternator bolts throwing off the alignment.

I have had good luck with a Dayco Poly-Cog.

 

same here on mp112

 

I tried a gatorback once the procharger ripped it apart on the first WOT run up on an ramp...



the guy at advance auto (owns a 'stang on the juice) suggested a dayco poly cog and I've been very happy with dayco belts ever since and wil never run a gatorback again

 

Gates, still looks great after a year

 

Gates. Had a gatorback and it shreaded. Pulleys where missed aligned but had a gates with the misaligned pulleys and never to a ****, actually i am back to my old gates. Pulleys have beened aligned now. I run ngk tr55, i heard that the boost will blow out the spark on iridiums and if the gap is to big.
