    Post #2 in this thread shows the two possible set-ups you might have on your 308QV (2 v-belts or 3 v-belts) -- just compare to what you have:

    Do a search on "gates belt" and read those 60 threads ;)

    But the short answer is that unless you have a very easy connection to a Gates industrial (not automotive) distributor (or you don't value your time ;)) it's better to just buy from RicambiAmerica, TRutlands, etc. IMO.

    Update on my belt issue thread from last Jan:

    Brian from Ted Rutlands came thru with a complete update kit. It took about a month and a half and even digging thru car parts from far away as California but he got it all. I had it put on in early spring and (so far) the problem is solved.

    I know I already thanked you about 3 dozen times up in Virginia at the FCA national, Brian, but once again THANK YOU!!!

    I am one happy 2 belt 308 owner!
