Del asks:

Any one have a good number for an AC belt?  Thought I had one but I found
out I now have five fan belts!!

  Thanks

I recently worked on a '62 with added air, not factory installed. The Dayco book called for a 47 and 1/2 inch belt (15475) but it was too long. A 45 and 1/2 inch belt worked fine ( 15455). The last three numbers in most belt part numbers is the length. A stock blower belt for our cars is 56 inches,  or a Dayco 15560. The first numbers refer to the width. In Dayco a 15 series belt is narrower than a 17 series belt.
