could you possibly take the metal spacer between the two halves of the pulley and cut it in half so that the two pulley halves are almost touching each other to give a higher gear ratio which in turn gives a higher top speed allowing the belt to ride up higher?

You gotta remember the belt can only ride so low on the back, I guess you would have to run it on the stand to see how high/low its getting.
I am not a mechanic, nor do I play one on TV. Actually my advice is probably worth slightly less than what you pay to view it.
