if they(ford racing) doesnt list the belt size on their site for it with the smog pump then you should contact their technicl support... they should have it, if not keep measuring! Does the Novi 1000 run a seperate belt or run off the serpentine belt?

Try running it like this, its a little different the stock. Sorry it looks crappy but it should work this way.
