Going with a wider belt helped my squeal problem. Dayco 17XXX, 17 is width in mm, x would be length in inches, so a 49.5" belt would be 17495. a 50" belt would be 17500 and so on. Most parts stores call for a 15mm width which is too narrow on some applications

And we have a winner! I ran into the same issue with my car's PS belt, I have CFV billet pulleys installed and once I sourced the wider belts no more issues. Mine would squeal at high rpm only but a faint smell of burning rubber was present as well.

I can’t find a 17mm belt local anywhere. My nephew is the store manager of Advance in my town and he has a cross number to the one I have but the warehouse is out of stock. Where are you guys finding them.

Buy one slightly shorter or slightly longer.

Advance carries Dayco, and usually can have them in very short time if not in stock.

What part number and brand are you trying to cross?
