i used to have gates belts(these are EXPENSIVE) but something ate up the edge of one of them, and i was a little streched for money at the time, so i got some super cheap belt, and its lasted this long...

I've seen Dayco V belts last forever, even under misalignment, improperly low tension, etc. Both my old 73 Charger and my friends 76 Firebird had Daycos on them from previous owners, and even w/ 1/2" misalignment the 76 wouldn't throw the belt.
