You can use a string to measure. The last digits of the belt part # is the length. ie XXX71 = 71 inches long.

The belt will be the stock length. All of the f-body, vette, and truck LSx motors use 2 belts, one runs the A/C and the other belt runs everything else. So if you remove the A/C you only need one belt and the length stays the same.

Serpentine belt, 6rib, 79 inches
GTR-4060790
Summit $24.

Goodyear Serpentine Belt: Gatorback
Part Number: 4060790
Kragen/Checker $29.99

Summit is hair cheaper. Same belt. The A/C belt is a four rib 41" belt for stock A/C location. If you add A/C later using an aftermarket relocate kit, it should specify belt length.

Are you still running power steering?

I used a 52.5 inch 6 rib on mine - No AC - no power steering.
