Anyone running Power timming belt? How much and where to get? Thx.

 

I think Power Enterprise is the name. Very good investment, stronger timing belt (over stock) when using aggressive cam setup, ie. Toda Bs, Cs, etc. I know a bunch of the R owners are using this. I'm sure they can give you more info.

 

I have one and it's so tight it whines like a son of a gun

 

If its whining its too tight and if you keep running it like that its not the belt that goes but the waterpump. With cams as aggresive as spc-c you need good belt tension but only to a point. And a sure sign that its to tight is if you can hear what sounds like the belt whining.

 

can anyone else attest to this??? this is what Topspeed suggested and did for me...obviously I am replacing the belt, tensioner, and water pump ever 6 months though

 

If your doing the belt,pump and tensioner every 6months dont worry to much about it should be ok didn't mean to give you something to stress about. Its just that cams with such big primaries do require pretty tight belt lash, you can be too tight just what is too tight maybe steve(Sgt) can give you an idea of the tension he runs but dont let it worry you to much if you stick to your maint routine. Hope eveyting turns out to your liking after the tuning should be a real strong runner.

 

hopefully everything will be fine

 

 

yeah sounds to me like its too tight re-adjust it,you did it yourself?

 

I'm running it haven't had a problem yet

 

I have 4 Power Enterprise Super Strong Timing belts left.
