    2 belt lenghts for to add...both with tensioner tab broken off:

    stock lower//whipple 3.0 upper//stock idlers = 66"
    4lb lower//whipple 3.4 upper//92mm idlers = 68"

    as I play with the whipple pulley ratio more, I'll be sure to post up the belts I'm collecting. LOL!

    whipple, KB, MP , eaton.....all upper pullies should be centered in the same place, so no need to worry bout what type of SC is on....

    Just the pulley sizes themselves and idler kits..and idler pulley sizes...

    i Bought a K080720

    A K080710 WOULD BE PERFECT!!!!

    more rather if they do make a 4080710 would be better since it would be a GATORBACK belt then....

    when i goto the L upper i will let you know if i need the 71 belt...

    i think with the 100mm idlers i will be okay hope....

    we shall see...

    that is the gates belt part numbers

    K080720
    4080720

    K0 means it is a Gates
    40 means its a goodyear gatorback

    8 means its a 8 rib belt...

    then the 720 means its a 72 inche belt....

    i would prob say with the tensioner mod you would need a 65" belt... maybe you can run the stocker... but i doubt it...

    Try a 64 first...

    A stock Lightning with 7.4/2.93 uses a 66" belt. A 2.7 upper will work well with this length. Adding a 2lb lower requires a longer belt. What's the next step up, 67 or 68"?

    i am running a 69 inch belt with a 10" lower and a 2.75 upper and i did the tensioner mod alittle to far....

    i think you will be fine.. goto oreilys and have them order a 65/66/67 inch belt...

    then go in the next day and play with them all.. the tightest one is the one to use...
