Personally id run v belt id rather only loose one operating system st a time. You blue a belt on a someone setup your pretty much screwed.we run v belts on our dirt business and have no problem turning 8200 consistantlu

fixed, but todays single belt systems go 100k without problems, but yes your right one belt, one operating system gone

Personally I'd run v belt. I'd rather only lose one operating system at a time. If you blew a belt on a serpentine setup you're pretty much screwed. We run v belts on our dirt business and have no problem turning 8200 consistently.

I fixed it the rest of the way

Youre seriously going to go through all the work of changing roofs? Is your time not included in the 'on-a-budget?' I'd just put a cage in for the rigidity before Id mess with that

[85z28kid]

id personally do it for looks. imo hardtops are way better looking. i personally never really liked my ttops it wasnt all that great with the sun beating done on you in the summer. the reason i had them is that the girlfriend liked them thats about it.

i personally wouldnt want the glass covering me if they decided to shatter on an impact but its his choice just my views of it.

[JoeliusZ28]

I usually autocross and road race with my t-tops off for that reason... see sig

I have not decided 100% on the roof swap, but I am not committed until I cut off the t-top bar. It looks like a bigger challenge than I thought but If I take it on, I am sure I will learn some things. Among other news, I am considering buying a 8 or 10 pt cage, they are much cheaper than I was told.

[85z28kid]

id do it. tack the roof on; then tack the cage together than pull the roof off and fully weld it together it would make it very simple.

you'd get a cage and a hardtop thats a win win for sure.

You found them cheaper, lol

the roof would be cool to see done but does seem like a lot of work. Part of it is about fun tho and cutting two cars up could be fun...
