There are no worthwhile mods for that vehicle

except perhaps for swapping out the stereo or tinting the windows

3800's are supposedly bad at intake/head gaskets, so those.

That's an accessory belt

You mean the serpentine belt?

>>17319797
It has multiple names
>Timing belt
>Serpentine belt
>I think someone called it a water pump belt once
>>
>>17319808
That belt has nothing to do with the timing.
Timing belt and serpentine belt are not interchangeable terms
>>
>>17319808
Timing belt controls the cams, sometimes the water pump runs off the timing belt, sometimes a balance shaft runs off the timing belt.
A timing belt a serpentine belt in that it can be bent backwards, but it's not an accessory belt, which is what the belt in the OP is.
>>
>>17319834
a timing belt is a serpentine belt* sorry been up for like 24 hours
>>
>>17319834
Actually, OP pic has a serpentine belt and an accessory belt driving the AC compressor.
>>
>>17319808
Timing does not run off that belt. So you can call it a timing belt.
Theres an internal timing chain, and its very short.
>>
>>17319838
Oh, didn't spot that the A/C had a different belt.
It still appears to be a serpentine style belt driving the A/C compressor though.
Serpentine belt just means that it's able to bend backwards by design.
>>
>>17319865
You know, youre right. I glanced at the pic and thougt the belt just drove the AC, but it goes a lot further and seems to also drive the alternator and power steering pump.
Serpentine it is.
