News of all these bolts breaking is making me worried about installing my kit now. I'd like to throw on a kit after all adjustments and revisions have been made so I know it's going to be as reliable as a comptech or sos kit and go on a long road trip without worrying.

Why does this belt have to be tuned based on harmonics (seems needlessly complicated), not simply deflection amount when you pull on it like old fashioned method of doing serpentine belts?

Also chefs crank pulley was hitting the rack and grinded an angle into the crabk pulley. I think after market mounts should be a must. Cuz if they break that extra play might cause catastrophic failure
