Message: [QUOTE="mandkole, post: 1345583, member: 4630"] Youre going to be needing groove detail for the 'K' cross section belt. All very good suggestions above. Having been in the belt business for years now, the groove profile and spacing of a serpentine style belt is critical for good belt performance. Groove center is critical-- you are allowed 1/2 degree offset for every foot of belt span. Runout will make belt tension management go crazy. With anything incorrect, you will kill belts or have squawking belts very quickly. Normally all of the grooves are cut at the same time with specific tooling, but very skilled guys with nice machines can do it one at a time. Id like to play with a lathe some day but accessory drive pulleys are not something that I'd be tackling as my first project--although not cheap, there are lots of companies that can do this. good luck!
