Power steering delete and Alt relocation, belt?
I am in the process of fabbing up a single 88, I have deleted PS and relocating the alternator. Does anyone know what size belt I can run, and if I need to run a pulley in place of the PS or not?
Thanks in advance,
Kev D

I didn't use a pulley in place of the p.s. There wasn't much wrap on the water pump but it never slipped or threw the belt. I can't recall the belt size. I used a string to get a measurement, bought about 6 that were close, used the one that fit, then returned the rest.

Ya I'm trying to figure out the same thing, my alt is up top now and if I take my ps pump off it looks like it won't hit the water pump like it should. The string idea is good, ill use it.
