Incase anyone else is looking, I have had to call so many places and tried everywhere until I could find 4 of these that are required by my microlight as I have a tractor type drive on my machine. They are known as SPZX760 and also 3VX300. Nobody knew what on earth they were until I was put on to Brian at Pacific Bearings Otahuhu. He has plenty in stock (going to pick mine up on Monday) and mention to him that you heard from Darren and they are for a microlight aircraft and he does the whole lot for $72.20 (and that includes GST).
Details:
8/15 Saleyards Road
Otahuhu 1062
(09) 276 7399
I put this on here incase someone else is looking for the same as they are very hard to find.

Shame you didnt post it on here beforehand-after a dozen years selling vee belts I couldve helped ya! Still, thats not a bad price for those wee fellas. Do you use all 4 on the drive : ie a 4-groove pulley?

They shouldnt be. Any transmission supplier worth his pinch of salt should be able to identify either part number. The only issue is when MilSpec or aero genuine part numbers are quoted and they're difficult to cross over. But thats what the internet is for  Do you guys in micolites/homebuilt have issues with using non-genuine or recognised parts? |

Well in that (microlight class) with Rotax 447's/503's and the like standard auto plugs like NGK B8ES are used and the belts on the drive system are not aircraft specific ones, rather ones that fit which in this case are the abovementioned. |
