Napa I think carries the Gatorback. The Polycog belts are good as well (Autozone). But, don't go and get a better gripping belt until you pin the crank. You'll increase your chance of tearing somthing up.

Pics courtesy of moregrip:

Take your balancer bolt out:


Remove Balancer via proper pulling device:



What you will see after removal, you will not need to remove the water pump:


What you will see (or something close to it) if your balancer is spinning on the crank:



The crank Pinning kit from Magnuson:


includes the new bolt that is needed for installing the balancer.

does the black canister besides the charger on driver side, when it opens, it opens slowly and closes slowly is this normal, i called magnacharger today and they told me that the charger is working properly cuz i was on the phone and had the truck running and gave it throttle and it wines they said its producing boost, so my next thing is to take off the balancer and check and see it's not spinning, it feels like it's missing power
