Use a string to figure out how much belt you need and then head out to the parts store. Should be in the 52" range if I remember right.

typically gains are in the 10rwhp area, and it's just a shorter belt so the motor isn't having to spin around that extra pulley etc etc.

For those of you who have done it, did you loop the lines of the power steering pump, or just leave them?

I am looking to by-pass my Power steering pump (which recently blew).

I picked up a 6 rib 51 inch belt ... correct size?

It was for Nissan 2.4L. That bothers me.
