Has anyone found a local auto parts store that stocks the 6PK720 belt? Of course none of the online parts lookups will list an a/c delete late 944, and the couple of shops I stopped at on my side of town don't stock it / can't get it. Would a 730mm belt work?

Last resort would be an online source with reasonable shipping rates.

I bought just a regular one either at auto zone or advanced (Discount auto parts) and then i did a A/C delete and got one there as well.

Short belt part number is: 6PK860 for a 6 rib and 5PK860 for the 5 rib.

autozone will call it a 720K6 for a duralast and I think a valuecraft belt. I can't remember how the dayco numbering goes off the top of my head. I know the last digits are the length.

I have an a/c delete bracket, I didn't just remove the compressor. I need a belt around 720mm long.

The details for a 720K6 belt say it's 72" long, or 1844mm, that's too long. According to the autozone website my store doesn't stock it anyway.

Autozone has a 288K6, which is 730mm long, so again the question is - is there enough adjustment in the tensioner to use a 730mm belt? And again - it's special order at my store, so am I better off ordering the right belt somewhere else? The Autozone belt is only $8.99

Edit: I looked up the 5 rib belt for the early cars, and it's 736mm long, so I'm thinking the 730mm belt will be OK. Yes? No?

My bad. Used to dealing with belts in inches.
