To answer your first question, I am currently spraying my alky just before the throttle body but am getting ready to try it just before the blower (in the inlet side of the blower) and just after (in the discharge). I have heard some folks have had great results with both of these locations. The theory goes that spraying in the tube before the TB may cause some of the liquid to puddle, where as spraying in the direction of the air flow such as in the inlet side of the blower makes for much better atomization.

I have been fighting belt slipage for a while now. I have tried diferant brands of belts tripple checked everything, including new tensioner, cleaning the belts and pullies, bigger crank pulley, belt dressing (that didn't do anything but make a big mess on the underside of my hood) and so far nothing has really helped. I had give some thought to trying VHT tire treatment on the belt but hadn't gotten around to it, when low and behold the newest MM &FF issue has an article on a blown car they installed the Snow alky kit on and had belt slippage and they used VHT on the belt to cure the problem!!! I had also looked into Mc Clure Racing's stuff (Insta-Boost Belt Treatment) but they want $20 for a little 4 ounce bottle of it and THEN $10 for shipping!!! I can get a whole gallon of VHT for $30. So that is what I am going to try.

Let me know how things go for you.
