So, do you think the old belt just wore out? Or maybe the pulley alignment is off?
I had that problem recently, my 72 Commando's 304 had the wrong year water pump with a 1/2" longer nose. Luckily I caught it before it got shredded as bad as yours. Taught me to put a straight edge on the pulleys whenever new parts get put on the front.
I can relate to your travel story, I've had my share, and I bet most of us here have also. That makes adventures out of plain 'ol vacations.
