670rwhp/655rwtq. Peaked at 17psi at 5800 and the belt slipped. Once again I was at the end of the adjuster

So is there a solution to your adjuster issue?

hey mike, didn't even know you were on this site! i will think of something over the winter. not too worried about it. im open to any/all suggestions though

Now when you say adjuster are you talking about tensioner? Here is a great site for a new tensioner: http://www.thumpracing.com/about_us.htm

it is not self adjusting. the pulley is attached to a bolt and then a reverse threaded bolt is threaded through the bolt that is threaded into the one attached to the pulley (confusing sounding).


you have to manually put tension on the belt by torquing down on the bolt.

here's a similar picture of it. it's on a mopar, but same idea
