Thanks for the link to the SAE paper.
So, apparently all of the Sprint's fore/aft belt positioning is done by the flanged crank sprocket? I was planning to employ all flanged sprockets on my inline-four DOHC hemi- crank, both cams, and both idlers. But judging by the Sprint setup, I guess that might be overkill, since my "un-guided" belt spans aren't much (if any) longer than the Sprint's. Perhaps I should compromise- use flanges on just the crank and one cam?
