why dont you measure it yourself? remove the tensioner, run the string around the ullies and buy that length belt (or the next closest size up)

Yea with the Ford a/c eliminator bracket and having no smog pump its a 71.0" belt. But that's with the stock pulleys so if you have UDP I'm sure its going to be different.

I was thinking of doing the same thing with no A/C delete pully. Can you post the size belt when you finally get it up and running? Thanks
