Anyone know if there is a belt in that size that fits our cars?
51.8-52.1in would work also.
I went to the parts store and the guy got my a gates hd belt and told me its 52in but after looking it up its 52.6 and I get a little belt slip.

That size belt is almost impossible to find in stores.I ended up getting a 6 rib one and found one 8 rib online and snatched it up.
I was running to tight of a belt with my setup and now the engagment is 2x better with the 52 n. In 3rd gear I can't feel the s/c jerk at all and most of the time even in second the car comes on smooth.
I think a 52.1 would be perfect for my setup but this might loosen up a little over time and become smooth like stock.
I ended up doing asp pullies and changed my water pump pulley with a vrp 175 pump that they gave out with there 175 kit and running a 178mm crank pulley.
With all those and a 52in belt the car is almost 100% perfect engagment.

I have been getting gates from Amazon for 20-26 bucks for 8 rib.
