[QUOTE="sparkywig, post: 621291, member: 3541"] I wouldn't use a toothed belt, they wear so much quicker, a V belt was originally fitted. After much mucking about with poor quality "standard" alternator belts I now use wedge drive belts. A SPA 900 fits my application perfectly, and at 12.7mm wide it sits right in the centre of the Berg crank pulley. I think you'll find that both your belts are 912mm long, but one is measured using the outer circumference and the other using the inner length. Drive belts are normally measured using the inner length. [/QUOTE]
