'Cause they didn't want to totally re-engineer it Posted by RS [Email] (#15) [Profile/Gallery] (more from RS) on Mon, 27 Jun 2005 11:20:02 In Reply to: More surface area?, Canadian_Saab, Mon, 27 Jun 2005 09:52:00 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
It was much easier to add a standard pulley with 2 grooves for 2 standard vee-belts than it was to re-engineer the whole belt system for what was then a non-standard belt system.
Remember that, back when this was designed (28 or so years ago [not counting the contribution from the 99 body engineering]), wide, flat, multi-groove belts were not the norm.
