it's not longer. It's a short, fat (thick) belt.
I meant my belts are longer. I see now it was a bit confusing how I worded it.

Quote:
Dual belt alternator pulley setups are a poor alternative because most nominally correct sized belts vary in actual length, making them impossible to tension equally. So, either one belt is too loose and slips or one is overtightened and eventually breaks. Further, if one belt breaks, it usually takes out the other belt at the same time.
That's crap.

Quote:
There is no tensioning adjustment.
Translation: God we hope it fits right because if it doesn't you have no way to adjust it.

Although the yoohoo belt isn't Pineapple's, on a side note, I don't trust Pineapple. I haven't dealt with them directly, but I don't think they have good business policies. Their 5/6th sleeve inserts have a "Typical improvement is about 8hp, but results vary" yet they refuse to back that up with dyno's.
