Alternator relocation kits - Buschur Racing VS Jay Racing VS others

[v8s_are_slow]

With what??? Would personally just like to use 3 belts and not wait for the belt to come off again.

I used steel plate on the back side and modified old alternator tensioner bracket on the front.

Screw all that. If I can just use 3 belts, that's a lot less work.

Wait a minute. Is it a stock p/s belt and water pump belt that's used?

 

[b00stedAWD]

^ No

 

[v8s_are_slow]

Well crap. Maybe I'll get this answer someday as to what belts to use.

No offense, but have you tried searching?

I did but it's been over a year. That's all "I" needed to know anyway. Thanks.

Last year I had a pretty good convo with Jay Racing about this problem . For those of you that don't know and have the old aluminum bracket. When I requested a steel bracket I was told by Jay Racing (call them and see) that if i ship them my old aluminum bracket they'll replace it with the steel one. If I remember correctly I would just have to pay for shipping.

i know jay personally and have for 10 or so years now. If there is a problem, he will want to get it fixed. He really is an honest guy. I'll be buying his relocation kit later this summer.

Yeah the steel bracket it the way to go. I just ordered this kit and its awesome. I am going to go the 3 belt route instead of using the one large belt. 9000 rmp and that big belt common sense tells me not for me

I will say this I have ordered from him plenty of times. He has some of the best customer service that exist hands down

 

[v8s_are_slow]

While customer service is a big deal to me personally, if the parts aren't top notch, then the customer service doesn't mean crap to me. Customer service doesn't make my car more reliable or make it run faster. It's the parts. Just sayin...

I just finished installing the kit and it fit perfect didn't have to add nothing no washers or anything! Maybe all past issue have been address. This is what makes customer service excellent when the seller listen to the customers and take action to correct issues!!

Had mine for over a year now. Only problem I have is the top bolt on the alternator that goes to the adjustment arm is now bent and allowing slack on the belt. Using the aluminum bracket.

Good to hear that it is working

The J.R kit thats on my car has been on for over 3 years, and thousands of miles.
Car gets run very hard, and I've never had a thought of it failing.
Its been working perfect for me, and I expect it to continue to do so.
