It's all about knowing when to say when based on experience and the specific combination of parts.

Just because it will take a certain number doesn't mean it wants it.

The belt breaking is what tore the seal. Not the other way around.

Install the LS style seal when you repair it.

Your crankcase vent set up is fine.

That's the problem with 10 rib setups. The belt sizes available to choose from are few are far between compared to an 8 rib. You have to get creative sometimes to get the tension required!

All serious race cars do not use a heat exchanger. It's pointless for that type of racing. Most people are going to be running an ice tank plumbed directly to the intercooler bricks.
