    I don't know. Evidently with a 3.1 and a new 650 belt I'm getting slip. Transmission whines and pretty loudly when it's cool ouside. Wife drove off in my car this morning and I could hear the whining above the exhaust.

    Napa - Gates 650 is what was on there with the 3.1, when it was slipping. I have a 660 gatorback on there now with the 3.25 pulley.

    I ordered a 3.5 tensioner pulley and a 660 Napa Gates belt today though. I'm about done messing with this though.

    I did run with a 01 Vette yesterday and stayed with him, which made feel pretty good. The Vette is a 5.7 auto, that a good friend of mine (member here) was driving. Other than that, I'm getting a little tired of this car...I'll get over it though.

    I'm lucky she doesn't complain about anything...and she really has reason to.
