Bringing this back to the top.
jimmo is making great progress refining his DIY Serpentine belt system.
Anyone else have up dates on their DIY Serpentine belt install.
I've purchased jimmo's idler pulley extension bracket shown above in post 193.
I purchased a CS 130 alternator from this E-bay seller billh6800, who will fabricate a custom CS 130 alternator.
Purchased a power steering pump with the serpentine pulley. Both should arrive by the end of the weed.
Also found this site for Goodyear Gatorback Serpentine belts. The 6 rib belt Part number, length from 29" to 120" in 1" increments.
shouldn't have any trouble selecting a belt.
Check it out to determine what belt length and part number to use.
