Default Gatorback Belt Part # for A&A Vortech 6 Rib 3.4" Pulley ?

I need some help finding part number for Gatorback belt to fit my combo. I want a belt sized so that I don't need much tensioner adjustment to take up slack. Any Help is Much Appreciated, Thanks

If you have a belt you've used, look for a part number on it and the parts store can do a comparison in their parts book. Or if it doesnt have a part number, measure it and use it as a rough guide. Remember, it has stretched some from use, probably about 5 mm or so.

There have been plenty of threads in the past about NOT running gator back belts... The design of those belts promote belt slipping on our car's (reduced contact patch)

I researched quite a bit about the different brands, and for the past year or so i have been running a driverite from advanced auto parts and have been very happy with it.
