I am getting rid of my a/c compressor so I reversed the tensioner and bought a shorter belt. The belt I got was a Gatorback and it is 54.5 inches long. When I put it on the car the belt has about 1/16th of an inch of clearance from the tensioner. I think if I could find a shorter belt the tensioner would not have to take up so much slack and would give me more clearance. For guys that have done this, what belt has worked? I tried to find a 53" belt but the parts stores can't get them. Please help.
