AC delete...anyone ever get right belt?

After taking off my smog pump off my 3.1, I am looking to take the AC system completely off. Has anyone ever figured out what size serpentine belt is needed to run without the smog pump or AC on a 3.1 V6?

you would have to have an ac delete pulley to run a combo like that. you can't "string" the belt from the alt/tensioner to the ps pump without rubbing itself on the water pump pulley, i don't think. anyway, just wrap a piece of string around the pulley configuration that you want then measure the length of it and go to the parts store and tell them "i need a XX inch 6 rib serperntine belt". they should be able to get it for you.
