First off does anyone have these pullies and do they work nice? They are blue aluminum under drive pullies. Second, I'm getting a new belt but i want to know if I need a new size belt or if I can just get the stock size? [Confused]

When I put my UD pulleys on I didn't need a new belt. I used the same one that was on there and it worked fine. The new pulleys are supposed to be bigger except the crank pulley; that is smaller. So since the 3 pulleys you bought are now different sizes you would think you need a new belt right? Nope... They balance ach other out since 2 are larger now and one is smaller now. Trust me bro, and ask around and see if anyone else has done the same thing I have. Census says, I am right.

yes that is what i hear too 88. The only thing is I need a new belt anyway so I just need to know what belt I need to get, does anyone know the stock belt size for a 95 GT or can I just go to Kragen and ask them at the counter? [Confused]

The bright blue FMS pullies look out of place on a stock looking motor. If you want the factory look, get Auto Specialties Pullies (ASP). The instructions will recomend a belt size, although I was able to barely get away with my stock belt.

i have the fms pullies. i didn't have to replace the belt. but i would get a belt that is about 2" shorter than stock. to get a snug fit.
