[QUOTE="Firewalker, post: 8863445, member: 676743"] Any hairpin alternator like that will always require a minimum of at least a 1/2" shorter belt up to as much as a 1" shorter belt due to the pulley they put on them. I tried a 1/2" shorter on mine and it worked but when I went to a 3/4" shorter belt it made a slight difference but for the better. Nice thing is you take the length of the OEM belt, how many groves from Dayco then from there can order the belt you need. My 1/2" shorter one even though have a ford is the right one for a small dodge car iirc. The 3/4" inch shorter belt is off some foreign car and the 1" iirc works on a chevy, ford or jeep,lol. As long as it has the right grooves even though it is that 1/2" shorter or as much as 1" shorter it is a belt it will work. [/QUOTE]
