Ya,i see your point.if it comes stock from the factory,whats the problem..The belt issue needs to be addressed,at rules meeting,racers need to speak up,if no one says anything,the track thinks everything is great..

is it really an issue? v-belt systems are generally cheaper, and all the current guys already have them. good quality serpentine systems are an advantage but are costly, i don't see why serpentine is needed, but i might be missing something.

serpentine systems turn wwwwwwwaaayyy freeer (sp? lol), you run basically no tension on the belt without having to worry about it slipping, everything turns really nice without the tension on the belt freeing up a little hp.

yup, i'm not talking about boat anchor stock truck set ups, i'm talking about the proper race serpentine set ups.

excellent, the carbon fiber brakes, carbon fiber panels, adaptive suspension dampers, electronic traction control, active handling traction control, bolt on fuel injection, on-board telemetry, 4 wheel independant suspension and 10" tires will all make a nice pkg on the nova.
Or is there a point where someone says no, Even though "I did my homework" ?

Good golley you guys are sure taking a big swing at this

I don't remember seeing Denso alternators from GM and I sure see lots of them in the SS class. I don't remember seeing KRC power steering pumps for GM but I've seen lots of those in the SS class, I don't remeber seeing the aluminum underdrive pulley kits come from GM either. Do I need to go on?
I run a bone stock flat belt system (Micro V) off of an 1987 305 Monte Carlo. Its not a real serpertine cause it takes two belts and doesn't have an idler. The pulleys are big and ugly and stamped out of steel. I have even seen this system on Pick-up trucks from the factory.
The KRC system is identical but has under drive pulleys and aluminum brackets. It does not have a belt tensioner and it uses two belts so I guess it's not even a serpentine system.
