<VV> Belts revisited

[J R Read_HML]

Ever since the "survey", I've been trying to track down the Dayco "top cog"
belts.  One of my "stops" was to their web site.  Could not locate the belt,
but left an email and they got back to me.  They STILL have not told me where
there is a retailer in my area, but maybe that will come later.

Anyway, they are giving me a p/n of 15560.  It seems to me that someone had
said the p/n was 15565.  The difference (to my understanding) is 1/2 inch of
length.  Does anyone know the correct part number?  What national vendors
might carry them?  Do the regular Corvair suppliers have them?  NAPA?

Correspondence with Dayco is below.

We show coverage on the 1961-66 Corvair.  6 cyl eng. Generator, Blower and
Idler is part 15560.

If you will let me know where you are located, we can direct you to one of our
distributors in the area.

How do I locate a store?

I've been to two parts stores and they only seem to have pulleys, not Dayco
belts.

Also, I believe that the correct part number is 15565, not 15560 as you
stated.  Which is correct?

Our 15560 belt fits 1961 - 1966.  You should be able to find this at any Dayco
parts store or distributor in your market.

I'm looking for a "top cog" belt to fit Corvair.  I believe that all years
would be the same, '60 through '69, but I'm specifically looking for one to
fit a '65.

These would be 65 1/2 inches and fairly narrow.

Could not find Corvair when searching on the web site, but I know that I've
seen these belts on other cars and I had one several years ago (that car was
sold).  I'd like to get about 3 of these - possibly more if there is a volume
discount.

Can you send me back the info and pricing, please.

Thank you.
