What upper do you have now?

I would honestly start with putting an ATI underwrite pulley on, and a 8.25 lower.

Increasing pulley size on either upper or lower will increase your contact patch, and have less of a chance for belt slip.

Naturally going down in size increases your risk of belt slip.

Typically belts start to slip in the 3.5- 3.7 range.

Also you get to have better dampening and the underwrite pulley frees up some cheap horsepower as well.
