Have you checked the belt fore and aft alignment?

() I actually need to file off some of the foot of my Balmar 100 amp alternator and then shim it with a washer to get proper alignment with the rest of the belt. After that I have no problems with 100amps and a single 3/8" belt. Are you getting a lot of belt dust?
