Hi just wondering whether someone could help me out i have a holden vp commodore bt1 v6 and i would really like to get a gilmer belt drive setup going as i am going down the road of stroking the engine any advice would be appreciated as i had the setup on my vh 383 and it was a lot better than factory belt drive system thanks for your time. stephen

I have never seen one for a V6 that wasn't custom made, you will probably have to measure everything up and buy everything separate, maybe even have to get some made up if you cant find what you are looking for.

there probably isn't much point in a gilmer belt drive on a V6. the factory micro V serpentine belt set up is much better then the standard V8 V belt set up. you can already get nice alloy pulley's to suit the factory V6 serpentine belt drives.
