I borrowed the wife's fabric tape measure and measured the two dozen random fan belts I have in a pile. I then sorted them by length and width. They ranged from 40.25 inches to 60.25 inches in circumference.

Yes, it's a slow day around here. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Then the kids and I took the Firebird out for a ride to get the mail.

And the power steering belt started squeeling.

It must be thinking I was going to fire it and install a new one.

Hey napa68,

I have the exact twin to your car sitting in my garage and it is on jack stands too! It too is a side exhaust 365 horse Milano Maroon coupe. Beautiful car you have there.
