I think you can order a belt that is ment for compressors or something and that is the correct lenght, not sure of the model number though sorry

got my pullies from the US including the blanking plates and then the belts I am going to measure and get from halfords. All the codes relate to the size so should not be a problem.

Can\'t the air pump and its belt just be removed? Leaving the other belt to run the water pump and the PS pump? Or am I being dense? :3Confused

you run the risk of only one belt drinving the water pump - and if it slips - you knackered !

im sure one you put the dual pully on a 1977 mini fan belt works ( have a search on here - a user called sean posted the info a few years back )

QuoteI don\'t know if your talking about the same thing ...... but I\'ve taken my airpump off and fitted a twin pulley on the alternator to compensate for the waterpumps loss of beltage!

I got mine from Pip at WGT. £40

The belts are 1965 Mini fan belts! Nice high performance jo

thats what i found after a quick search :D
