Default life expectancy of a HP500 Belt???

How many hours should a HP500EFI get out of the belt? It seems I am replacing belts with every oil change.

well then.... about 1 oil change! haha.
Obviously, there's an alignment or tension problem.

When you put the new belts on run them a while and re tighten them , They will stretch.

I bought a set of spares for the Scarab and never used them
