Default Alternator Belt for driver side mounting for 63

I am relocating my alternator to the drives side using stock brackets
on my 63 SWC with 340 hp deep groove engine pulleys

Anyone know an alternator/crank/water pump belt that would fit this?
I am not using the idler pulley in this case

Thanks

Glenn:

Just measure it.

Buy a cheap belt of the correct width that is longer than needed. Cut it . Now wrap the cut belt around all the pulleys and mark belt where it overlaps and is snug fit. Alternator in about middle of adjustment range. They lay belt flat and measure the belt from cut to overlap mark. Now you have the correct size and width to buy new. And you also know it will fit.
