    How long of a belt do I need?

    Is anyone running no ac and no power steering? Any idea on what size belt I would use?

    String some rope around what you need to and that will start you off. I have to do this as well but I don't even have the motor in yet.

          Power steering and AC have their own belts, which doesn't affect the water pump and alternator.............


          Keep it slideways!!

              AC has its own belt and the power steering runs off the serpentine.
