SLP Underdrive Pulley on a C5 Put a 25% SLP Pulley on my Corvette last year and never put the A/C belt back on. Is that belt the same or is it smaller? I've looked on SLP's website and it only requires a new serpentine belt, so I'm assuming the A/C belt is, in fact, the original size.

Either way, you can always measure it...the stock pulley diameter is 7.5" (at least for the F-body). A 25% underdrive pulley should be 25% smaller in diameter (approximately).

the A/C Belt has it's own "belt-track" I'll have to measure both tonight when i got off of work.
Thanks.

I also put a post on Corvette forum and a member said that the SLP Pulley retains the original A/C belt length. I'll go home and try it, but for now, I'll post that as my Unofficial result.
thanks for looking.
