Kragens won't have a clue. Use a string to measure what size belt you need. Chances are you'll have to try exchange a few belts before finding the perfect one.

You will need to relocate your PS pump to the upper location, in place of the A/C compressor, to make it work.

when i tried to do this without relocating the power steering pump the belt would rub between the tensioner and the water pump on itself.
