Default Jackson Supercharger b18 Question: what belt

i picked up a JRSC for B18B. it came with a double belt alternator pulley so i can run a belt straight from the blower pulley to the alternator instead of one long belt with tensioners. but i cannot find what size belts to run. if anyone has this setup let me know.

thanks

i now know that jackson racing makes the belts i need, but i hear that their belts arent the greatest, especially for more than 6psi, and i plan on putting a 10, or 12 psi pulley on it, so i would like nice belts that will handle it. so if anyone knows the part # for the belts i need in a good quality brand let me know

He doesn't need a tentioner, because the alternator is his tentioner. One belt goes from roots pulley to alternator groove one. One belt goes from alternator groove two to the crank pulley.

yes. and if you look at the newest b-series JRSC kits on supercharger.com, it looks like they come with double belt alt pulleys now

if im not mistaken i think the belt from the crank to the alt. will remain the same, you just need the belt from the alt to the SC pulley

Yes, you still need the tensioners that are part of the B series kits.

If the S100 has the boost option, and your tuner is equipped to tune the S100, there is no reason not to use it.

Was this a real question? Of course you need the upper and lower tensioners.. How can the alt tighten both belts if SC and Crank pulleys are on opposite ends? Think about it please...
