Message	I have a unorthodox light weight crank pulley and my belts squeal for about 5 minutes after I start my car some times and it's annoying. I also have brand new belts on the car (ps,waterpump/fan, and I think the last is ac). Anyways how can I make it so the belts don't squeal every time I drive? And here is the pulley I have https://conceptzperformance.com/Cart/description.php?II=15241
