There is one thing that I have gotten very good at, finishing a Z project in time for a rain storm........

August in Alabama means a 75% chance of rain every day around 4-7pm. At least the showers cool things down some but the humidity! You can work up a sweat just standing.

Well, the 8 to 7 rib belt mod and additional jack shaft pulley have been installed. I did wound up making a custom spacer out of 6061 aluminum bar stock. I just didn't like all of the washers acting as spacers, it just wasn't worthy of my Z!

The HD Fleet belt is slightly thicker than a regular Gates Micro-V so I would think twice about using one. I will, however check with the Gates racing division for the racing version of the K080188 belt in BLUE to match my Z.

Pauly Z has already posted a picture of the setup but this is what mine looks like IN RACING GREEN.

The swap out doesn't take long at all and the belt, pulley and hardware runs about $100 and it should not slip! Look at the wrap around of the belt on the jack shaft pulley. Awesome!

Tomorrow the weather is looking good in the morning so I will try another log run and see what happens. Wish me luck!
