Who's is that Al?
Looks like a 2.3L Whipple. It'll make some serious mumbo but I reckon they'll have problems with belt slip. Running a 6 rib setup probably won't be enough surface area. More imprtantly though they should also look at the belt wrap on the blower pulley. It's going to have less than 160 degrees of wrap and the tensioner setup only pushes the belt away from the pulley. I'd change the tensioner design so it pulls against the belt and wraps it further around at least. With serpentine pulley setups its all about surface area contact. Unlike a tooth belt which has positive engacement a serpentine belt transmitts the power by sheer friction between the belt and the pulley.
