> [@esford90](#): > > Thanks man, you used this 275k4 belt without denting the frame rail in right? Yeah, it will bring the alternator real close to the block to give you more clearance, belt for a normal b series calls for a 300k4 so it will be tighter ---

no it was wayyyy to short, the stock one i have is 30.5 inches, i tried a 30 and 1/8th inch belt and I couldnt get it over the pulleys…i dont get it, for some reason im having the hardest time finding a belt that will work for me. Im getting pissed off haha i can do the whole motor swap and I cant get the belt right. ---
