Also tried one of the Napa's belts (horrible) and it spun and screamed bloody murder at 4000 rpm.

I need a high quality V belt for a small block that's running a DG crank, water pump and alt w/o air pump or power steering. The one that rolled was 44.5" long and I had a aftermarket top alt bracket in the Nova. If I put the stock top alt bracket on I'm sure it's going to be somewhere in the 43" to 44" length somewhere?

Anyone have a lead or two on a good quality belt and the length for minimal pulleys (Crank / Alt and Water Only) ???

Thanks in advance.
Any chance there are alignment issues with the pulleys?, as that is what the symptoms suggest. I've run the repop belts from Quanta Products on two 70 Zs without issue...one w/ AIR and one w/o AIR.
