Hey Chris, I just noticed one thing with your oil pump drive, I can't see guide washers on either pulley, and it looks like you can't even put them on teh crank drive which is where they are most logical to go, if you don't have guide washers on one or the other it'll flick belts continuously, sorry if I'm mistaken tho.

Hey Kyle, I was only snapping shots with my camrea phone and they are not very clear but there is clearence for guide washers on the crank pulley. I've allowed for 2 3mm 60dia guide washers which will be position either side of the belt. All angles covered
Cheers mate

Ahhh, sweet man, thats great, just didn't want you havin a drama
As for havin one go at the belt flickin off, we set up an input in the ecu so if it see's no oil pressure over 1000rpm it cuts fuel and spark to kill the motor, then you don't have drama's trying to start it and are safe if it ever flicks a belt nailed to the boards.

The goal is to run an 8, so what ever power it needs I think a cool 1000hp should cover it. I dont think we will have much trouble making that There is a lot of great gear going into the car.
