As far as my typo....I read my damn post 3times, and then when I hopped into my car heading home it popped up in my mind...hey...did I just write SRT-4....DAMN IT!!! my two friends have SRT-4's, so I'm used to talking about them haha.

I see alot of people writing Caddy stuff on here...Northstar'ss are awesome engines...till something goes bad, then let the lightening up of the wallet begin. last summer my friend needed stuff for his STS. I had never worked on one before, only heard the horror stories. we take off an intake at the junkyard to check out what would be involved to work on one, low and behold the starter is under the intake!!! bricks were being **** out when we saw that lol.

Dayco's are behind the technology base for belts. I understand they were manufactured for the average walk in customer, so they have the quality to match what they are looking for. If you want to take that extra step, go with Gates. They just came out with a compound for the belts that don't crack, are less prone to glazing, and is stronger then standard compounds found in other belts...but it comes at a price, so if you're willing to shell out the few extra bucks for less headaches, come on down guys.

In all honesty I still have a Dayco on my car since, id have to say 2006 when I deleted my A/C, and I haven't had problems, but I do see a lot of rubber dust particles around a few areas telling me it dried out, and time to change. I've seen the destruction a Dayco can do, and how relatively fast they can go bad, but there could be other things such as was it installed correctly.
