I am ordering the A/C delete kit for my 85 but it requires a new belt. Does anyone know the size of the belt i need to get. Thanks

the place you are getting it from should have a the size belt listed in the info

They did not have it. Not sure why. They told me to call Ford. But the guys at the counter did not know either and the place they needed to call to get the info is not open again until monday so i figured i would try here.

if your running stock pulley's just buy a belt from the parts store for a non ac car

this might help under the info it tells you the size belt well the part number that you can look up and get it

Dont waste money on pullies. They just clutter the engine bay up IMO.

But the power steering pump is mounted to low to do that. the belt would rub against the crank pulley if i remember right. This delete kit moves the power steering pump into a new location and that is why a new belt is needed.

i have no Smog or AC and i got the trick flow AC alimination plate that moves your tensioner pully to where your AC should be, then you just remeasure for a new belt with a string, then buy the 5 closest belts to what you need and keep the one that fits and take the rest back.

BTW, my PS is the the stock location. THe bracket i got moves aroudn all that, it was $25 if i remember right.

When your doing AC and Smog deletes, you should always do them at the same time, imo. Makes things much easier and you only have to buy one new belt.

I just finished doing my ac delete without a smog pump and after my power steering pump took place of my ac position I used a gatorback 73.5 belt and it fits perfect.

why are you deleting the a/c?....you gain about 1hp from it and about 20 pounds and you sweat your *** off
