the march pulley costumer service people should be able to help you a lot on this subject. if not, try to size it yourself with some creative ways. on the tensioner there is three marks. between the first two is where the tensioner is supposed to be on a new belt. have a friend hold the tensioner where it is supposed to be on a new belt and use rope or an old belt. basically, get close and adjust as nessasary by buying a bigger or smaller belt. belts are not too expensive and you should be able to get the right one in like two or three tries.

^^^^^^i know this sounds like b.s. but it is the way i would try it...
