    From what I heard... the gator belt...


    but to me... the cheapest. I just take my old belt keep it in my "tool kit" that I made up for me. If I ever trash a belt... I jsut go to the trunk and put the old one on(should last the trip to a store to get a new one)

      If you ever look at a Gator belt next to the Dayco, they are very nearly identical. For a non-supercharged application, any of these options will be just fine.

            Where can I buy Dayco Belts?
            I also don't like Goodyear products. I personally think their tires suck, and their crappy service is second to none.

              I'm not sure what type I have(replaced it like a year ago)...but I know if I dont wash out my engine bay every month or so, it squeaks.

              Cheapest works great for me on the 3.4L.

                for forced induction the gatorbacks are very respected.

                I would buy the cheapest one
