Drive belts

[PaulM]

Anyone know where you can get drive belts from that are purchased by length, rather than by mode of car ??

[Garbe]

your local motor factors should be able tohelp. I got mine from one in Northampton, just asked for the size.

I think PW uses motor factors as well mate. I know he did with the odd-length belts for my car.

It was Paul who told me!

[biteme]

Yep, am almost sure he said just wrap a length of string around the belt route and then just go to the factors and ask for x mm belt with x ribs etc.

Even I know that - does that mean I can build a Mk3 V8? :rlol:

Shit paul your maps, i forgot mate, will do that tomorrow.

As for the belt, yep motor factors can order them in whatever size you want (roughly anyway)
