    it grips better...nothing to worry about unless the whine gets louder. then you need to worry about old pullies.

            I will wait a little bit and see if it gets better. Pulleys were fine with the old belt. How can you determine if they are bad ? I doubt they are though.

              Gatorbacks do that. Mine still does it some times, and it's been on for at least 10k miles. It's just something to get used to
