well its up to you folks on what day you want to go. Just keep in mind Saturday is nice because you have Sunday to recover
Sunday is nice because you have Saturday to prepare. Take your pick.

whent he car runs again. there must be a way for them to measure the tension and set it up properly.
at least thats what the pro shops do
or they have done a billion and know the tension
I"m sure with the new one it'll be ok.
Here's what i found
The belt tension is set by deflection:
Alt/PS belt:
replaced: 7 - 9 mm (0.276 - 0.354 in)
reused: 9.0 - 10.0 mm (0.354 - 0.394 in)
A/C belt:
replaced: 7.5 - 8.5 mm (0.295 - 0.335 in)
reused: 9.0 - 10.0 mm (0.354 - 0.394 in)

Given the circumstances, on that day when Kevin's belts snapped. We had no choice because of what time this happened at. I do remember telling Kevin change the belts ASAP because using used belts is not good.
