Belt Routing


After weeks of work on brackets, last weekend I finally figured out I wasn't routing the belt the most efficient way. This became obvious as I was designing the tensioner bracket. I'll need rev 2 of the bracket - I need to pull the base away from the steering linkage a bit, but I'm pretty close. Tensioner also needs to be moved closer to the block a bit to center the pulley. A final belt needs to be purchased - I cut down a used belt and safety wired it together to give me something to work and use as a template.
