Stuart, I have not given this any serious consideration as the BWK seems to do a fine job of eliminating the slip. But, more to the point, accessories on the SRT6 (alternator, AC compressor, Power Steering pump and even the waterpump) are NOT inexpensive to replace ... and while these accessories have proven to be, for the most part, "bullet-proof" at factory load levels (in terms of loads on their respective bearings) , I hesitate to tempt fate by increasing their loads (particularly when this problem seems solved). But I do like the way you think.
Cheers,
Chris
