 I have been using a top cog dayco belt from corvair Underground for the past ten years and i can honestly say i have never thrown a belt since i started using this belt and i am very hard on my 69 and the motor is built far from stock,I also auto cross it also.I switched to this belt from the gates they sell when i started flipping belts in autocross races  curt
