Title: Re: Gilmer belt drive for VW Post by: j-dub on September 15, 2020, 01:49:19 am I have a set of what looks exactly like that still in the package, Race-Trim on the package.
Did Gilmer produce it and race-Trim was maybe just a reseller?

I actually have a bit more than one complete kit, it has two different crank pulleys and several extra belts. I will take the photos and post them tonight.

Title: Re: Gilmer belt drive for VW Post by: j-dub on September 16, 2020, 16:19:19 pm Next to the Bottom Dead Center mark is the labels P and B. What do you think those mean? If B indicates BDC, what would P mean?
thanks, Jeremy Title: Re: Gilmer belt drive for VW Post by: Kaferdog on September 17, 2020, 00:01:46 am I wondered about that also..?

Title: Re: Gilmer belt drive for VW Post by: j-dub on October 21, 2020, 03:01:22 am I saw that you posted for sale on the Samba. Curious if it sells and what it sells for?
Title: Re: Gilmer belt drive for VW Post by: nlvtinman on October 27, 2020, 05:06:25 am As a note of caution, if you use this pulley combination, be sure to have your fan welded. As the belt doesn't slip if 'reved high, the fan can explode inside the shroud. I had it happen.
