Ok maybe I can’t use search very well on my phone but I need to put a belt on my 89 with just the smog pump delete. I’m not sure what one I need. I have power steering and AC from LMR. If not I can just send 30 belts to my builder lol

Old diagram I saved years ago. I know my belt is shorter - I want to say 82 or 82.5" off the top of my head, but I have some underdrive pulleys on. I will try and check if there is a part number on it still.

so you think that a parts store has a listing for a vehicle that has a factory part removed? I work at a parts store (20 years) and can do the same guessing but if one of the knowledgeable peeps here has had the experience and knows the most commonly used size then why not ask?

They have the widest variety of belts. Also, it was just a suggestion I am not married to the idea. Was just trying to help.

Route a piece string around the same path the belt would take — hitting all the pulleys and the tensioner — then mark it, lay it flat, and measure. Maybe shrink it an inch or 3/4 to account for the tensioner .... maybe that would help you.

I think the OP knows all this. I think he was just asking if someone already knew what length or part number would work with his setup. Granted if he would have said all stock pulleys except it has the LMR A/C compressor it may have been more clear.

Belt length highly depends on what pullies are on the vehicle. The blue 84.5" routing will work provided the OP has stock pullies. The alternator is the pulley to pay attention to, as quite often folks will do the 3G conversion and leave the bigger SN95 pulley on. If this is the case the 84.5" belt will be a tad bit too short.

We got the 84.5" belt to work just as the illustration showed on first comment.
Thanks!
