Default Fan Belt Length Question

I've removed my smog pump on the car and threw a U/D pulley on the crank. BIG MISTAKE. So, due to cooling issues, I want to throw my original crank pulley back on the engine. Does anyone have an idea as to what the belt length should be without the smog pump, while using stock pulleys?[/align]

I wouldnt think only putting the crank pulley on would effect your cooling that bad..but who knows try the other pulley and see what happens.
