Kev... do you plan on doing the install yourself or taking it to a shop? Let me know how it goes and the results (as if you weren't already planning on that).

I'm going to have Matthel (Turbo95Max) help me out on the install. Don't worry, I'll post results. Hehehe...

The directions Y2KevSE posted are probably the best. I have the same bookmark.

The only problem I see is obtaining the correct belt tension after the install. I *think* he mentions a belt tensionsing device, or perhaps that was somebody else, which would get the belts tensioned back to spec. Of course, you could tighten everything until it just feels right: belt squeal may result, though.

Other than that, the article is excellent.

Ask Got Rice? about an UDP or search for related topics. He has an opinion you may want to consider, and which I had not heard until he mentioned it about some kind of warping of something or another. It is something to consider.
