Thanks in advance.

Get a Gates K060975. Or a belt that's 97.5" long. I think the tech article says to use one that's 80", but that was too long for my car. Actually I've done this to both my thirdgens, and the 97.5" fit fine on both. If you want you can plug the manifolds with 1/4" brass plugs to clean up the engine bay a little more.
