Re: 95 Cobra with Pullies Question

So they changed the pulley setup on the 94's vs. the 93's? 93's had an underdrive crank pulley, overdrive (smaller) WP pulley, and all other pullies were the same as the standard 5.0.

Re: 95 Cobra with Pullies Question

Well I ended up going to Napa and got a 3" OD idler pulley vs. the stock 3.5" OD pulley (My bearing was starting to go bad anyhow).

Then the frustration began.
I first went with a belt that was 104.25" (stock GT is 104.5") this was too short.

Then I tried my original belt with the new idler, this worked fine (but my belt is bad, only a four groove now).

So I went back to Napa and got an original call out belt, the only problem was the belt in the package was not the correct part number, and was way to short.

So Napa ran to Vestavia Hills for me and got a correct belt, only this one was just a hair short.

So we mesure my belt on the car, and it was 106.375" (stock Cobra is supposed to be 105").

So Napa checked and they have one. There sizes go from 104.25 to 105 to 106.375.

The 106.375" fit fine, but the tensioner is slithgly to the soft side, but after driving into work (35 miles) it seems to be fine.

I just love changing things from stock.....ugh
