Badkarma Posted May 11, 2007 Report Share Posted May 11, 2007 All this talk about gatorback belts got me wanting to try some. So I got some for my 72 camaro with March 6 rib pullys. The previous belts had a very hard life, like hard shifts at 6500 lol. needless to say those daycos squeked all the time. This last weeked I put on the gatorbaks, damn those things are quiet! Even at idle, nice and smooth in the engine bay, no noise, no hum or blower belt sound. 6500 rpm shift, not a peep, dead quiet. So needless to say I'm going to be grabing a couple for the truck soon.
