Belt Length with ASP Pulley and 145A Alternator?
I'm going to be getting an ASP pulley and 145A alternator soon. I plan on getting just the underdrive crank pulley, not the overdrive alternator pulley (if I don't have to, e-fans are the only aftermartket electrical draw I have).
What's the correct belt length? I got some mixed information using the search, but the info was outdated. Hopefully someone has a solid answer by now. I'd prefer to have all of the right parts ready for the install. Buying decent belts locally at a reasonable price is hard.
Here are the belts for the stock 105A alternator:
- Accessory Belt w/ Crank only: Gates K060895 AC Belt: K040345
- w/ Crank & Alternator Pulley: Gates K060900 AC Belt: K040345
Will they be different with the 145A alternator?
Thanks!

If I don't use the overdrive alternator pulley that would mean I'd need a longer belt, theoretically. Of course the K060900 still might fit.

From what I can dig up, the stock belt for a 105A alternator is around 92.3" long. ASP recommends a 90" belt with the underdrive crank pulley and stock alternator pulley, 2.3" shorter than stock. I'm curious how much play in belt length the stock tensioner allows for?

I'm getting the crank/alt kit as well and that gates number is a 90 5/8" belt, so I was curious on that
and for the A/C....did the belt they listed work? do you have a tensioner on yours or was it a stretch belt?
