Serpentine Belt

[BFlat]

I've read a bunch of posts regarding which belt to use, and I'm still confused after reading all the suggestions. Would some kind soul please give me the brand and model number of the replacement belt that fits & where I could get one? Old belt looks okay, but I have a bunch of stuff removed for AC compressor install so figure I might as well replace the belt. It's an '87 turbo limited. Thanks.

Scratch that last post I screwed up. I could not delete it in time.
I thought that was it but I went out to the car and found different.
Its a NAPA Micro-V 060637 6PK1620 made by Gates for stock components and stock pulleys. 63.77 inches.

I have this one with a rebuilt duralast alternator with a slightly larger pulley. After it worn in a little it put the tensioner right in the sweet spot.

That's what I usually use with a well used tensioner.

Here’s what I’ve been using for years & can highly recommend this belt size.
Think it is slightly shorter than the factory recommended size , but outs the tensioner in its sweet spot. Believe it’s 63.5” long

I think these have been discontinued. I bought a couple off Rockauto many years ago. High quality, quiet, and fitment was perfect. Have not seen them for sale anywhere for years..

You are correct , however if you keep your eyes peeled you occasionally can find the Goodyear Gatorback belts for sale by members on various TR sites (which is where I’ve been able to score a couple). Failing that sometimes pop up on e-bay
The length is most important , regardless of the make be sure to look for 4060635
