......I may not have dual CP3s, but I can tell you that my belt moves 1-2 ribs every run down the track. Its the first thing I check when I get back to the pits.
i had to do the same thing till i got an OEM tensioner.

Your tensioner is weak. Ive done the "lose brakes/steering" at the end of the track due to a shredded belt on an old tensioner/idlers. IMO, even new tensioners can have springs too weak to hold the belts tight at higher rpms.

....not that any of that can help you with the PPE issues, but I thought it may be of interest.
OEM tensioners may be tighter than the majority of aftermarket tensioners, but not one of them. The Dayco auto-adjusting tensioner is an expensive piece but it has solved the belt issues on a few trucks that I know of, one being Dylan's (you remember him right Dan?) before he even put on the junky Dual CP3 kit he had belt issues during hard acceleration. He went through oem tensioners, and aftermarket alike and couldn't solve it, he found this Dayco one and it has been great ever since. After running dual CP3's he still hasnt lost a belt yet, but we have had issues with the PPE kit as have some of our friends, and we have had words with Dan. I don't know who makes a better kit these days, all companies are making them cheaper and care less and less about each customer, but I have become a proponent of "if you want it done right, sometimes you gotta do it yourself."
Exactly! I want to know why something that costs 2k has to be "shimmed "get anyways. Are they just that damn lazy that they can't just make the bracket right to start with
They probably dont make the kits in the first place, do they? Remember, PPE is a reseller of a lot of other people's ideas and parts, just with PPE's name stamped on them.
Yeah, that guy was a good guy...I dont know anyone personally who runs one, but ill bet they are sweet. Too bad hellafast isn't still around.
that's only the beginning. Helpful tech support can only come from someone who understands every aspect of the vehicle and how the product works alone, then in conjunction with the vehicle as a whole. If someone was to suggest to you that the reason your Dual Fueler control box maxes out rail pressure, on its own, when plugged in, BECAUSE OF TUNING....would you believe him?

I don't know of one for sure, but a few months ago I had a very brief discussion with TNRGreene about a remote mounted, large single pump with an overdriven pulley. At that time he hadn't mounted it all up. IIRC he was going be trying a pump that was not an "aftermarket" special, it was some other bigger bodied pump. The name of it I can't recall. I know this doesn't resolve the issue at hand, just trying to answe your question Juddski.
