Yeah the pulleys have different amounts of ribs on them....my belt sits back one notch on the SC pulley but all the way on the crank (or at least I think thats the way they are?)....but yeah, they are a bit different.
You'll need to release the tension on the tensioner to install the belt. There is a raised area on the top of the tensioner and you can grab it with a pair of vise grips and push back on it. I'm sure there is a toolf or that but I used vise grips and a shop rag (so as not to scratch it). Then just push back and the belt will slide on!
Eh...old man with a Corvette now...it was bound to happen sooner rather than later right?
