i was able to use the stock sized belt for the water pump/power steering, though it took a little fanagaling to get it on. i can't help you with the altenator pulley as i don't have A/C.

Place your tensioners in the middle of there adjustment range.
Grab a some string or fishing line and go around the pullys just like each belt would and mark them.

In case anyone cares I put the recommended belts on a shosource udp, and with the tensioners maxed out I still couldn't get proper tension, but there's enough I guess. I doubt anyone uses a belt tension gauge to check, but I do. I got the part numbers from shosource.

Next time i'm going to get shorter belts and post back.

Just measure it up and call the part number , The K numbers - last 3 digits are the length of it , a 455 belt is a 45,5 inch , and the 06 is the number of ribs.

Since i got a custom belt setup , I used a old belt , cut it at one end and use it as a template to know how long you need...
