Default New Vortech belt sizes?

was wondering what size of belt do I need to run a 2.87 pulley on a new-layout design vortech SC?

the 3.125 uses the stock belt (that I tried)

help is appreciated

If you just measure the radius of both pulleys and subtract you'll have your answer. I come up with .7788 more but I may be wrong. With that said, a belt that is .5 to 1" shorter than what you currently run should work.

thanks guys,

a guy said that with the new layout, we can adjust the tensioners to accommodate the smaller pulley using the same belt!

not so sure how true is that!
