Deleting AIR, Shorter belt?

I will be deleting my AIR system this weekend. I have the routing for the AIR Pulley delete. What I need to know is which belt to go with? Anyone have the belt number? Thanks!

Re: Deleting AIR, Shorter belt?

don't forget to try a search...took me two minutes to find

"I went with the Good Year Gatorback Poly-V belt. It's a 6 rib belt part numbers:
6PK2455
4060967 (I believe the 967 means the belt is 96.7" long)"

and in the tech articles it says 96.8


or you could do it the "fun" way and just use a string to measure it
