what do you think compared to gatorback.

[billytheman1188]

It looks just like the stock design......

[cherrington17]

i'm with billy. looks stock to me.

[Ttop191]

the difference is their "w" design, instead of the ends of the belt coming to a point like typical belts, its a double point which supposedly reduces noise...

[irondiezl3]

really you think that looks stock? it looks different to me. ive always heard gatorback is the best but this is suppose to be quiet

[Greencoupe2.2]

I installed the same belt on mine, it seems that it is coated in some type of fabric to make it quieter, it works perfectly fine-six months and still no noise. the original belt is a dayco anyway and I never had aproblem with the stock one so I don't expect anything diffrent fom this one.

I don't know why we quit carrying Gatorback, they were the best shit ever. The new Daycos seem to be cheap with a high price.

i thought u can still get the gatorback? thought someone on here posted part number?

[[ion] C2]

Not available through AutoZone man, not the entire world.

[irondiezl3]

yeah u can u just have to have part number they just dont list it under our cars same with msd ignition wires there to. but that aside you like the gatorback to ion?

[[ion] C2]

You know I work there right? If we still carry them, they're VDP. There are no Gatorbacks left in the shelving, it's all Valucraft, Duralast, and Dayco.

I've always used the Gatorback. I got mine just before we stopped carrying them.

[irondiezl3]

when did they stop carrying them i thought they can order them? and i did a search and it seems theres two different lengths 865 and 868 whats better?

[[ion] C2]

One's 0.3 inches longer than the other... not like it's going to make any kind of difference.

I might buy it just because it might be the only good domestic belt I can get:

Made in the USA

Gatorbacks are Made in Mexico and cost about the same.
