Goodyear belt?

I installed a 1LE air delete pulley recently and put on a new belt (serpintine). It is a Goodyear
"Gatorback" belt---supposed to be quite.

Ever since I get a wine, not real loud but defintaley noticeable....sounds kinda like a supercharger.....excpet I don't have one.

any ideas or has anyone used this belt?

thanks!

Go back and check the belt to be sure all the grooves and ribs are aligned. It's easy to get the belt installed one rib off center and have it make noise.
