Make sure you save your recipt, you may need to go up or down a size. There is usually a slight variance, as was the case when I put an a/c delete(exact same as stock brackets) on my fox and the stock non a/c 5.0 belt did not fit.

Take a piece of wire, wrap it in the correct fashion. Measure it, subtract half inch. You will be pretty close at that point.
