I want to go this Gilmer style belt kit on my new 383 i am building but my brother thought it would be overkill. Is there any negative side to this compared to a V-Belt style??

I am building a 383 with a Tri-Carb setup and would prefer the Gilmer style belt because it is different compared to what you normally see.
