[QUOTE="olympic, post: 16887594, member: 168598"] The Whipple idler has a really small pulley so it may need a shorter belt, plus it adds quite a bit of adjustability. If you're just buying belts from the parts store down the street then start with an 80". It's easy enough to take it back and swap for a different size. If you need it to be right the first time it's best to wait till the car is together then measure what size you need. Easiest way is to take an old belt (longer than 80", 4,6, or 8 rib, doesn't matter)) and cut it so it's 1 long piece. Then you can wrap it around all your pullies to measure the length needed. A second set of hands is useful to move the tensioner into position while you take the measurement. [/QUOTE]
