Shorter serpentine belt?

[bbb15844]

I'm going to install a new alternator which requires a serpentine belt shorter by 1 inch that the stock one, The belt i currently have on is the AcDelco 6k930. Does anyone know which belt model i would need thats shorter by an inch than this one?

take the old one to a real parts store (not the ones that sell the fuzzy dice), they have a belt sizing gauge. That should work.

I ended up buying the Dayco 5060923DR (a lil more than half an inch shorter) which worked perfectly with a mechman alternator.

I bought a belt for a Silverado with the 105amp alternator. It's about 3/4 to an inch shorter than the belt for a Tahoe/Yukon with a 130 or 145amp alternator.

Those belt trimming/shortening tools are are pricey and hard to find.

A 6K930 is 93.0 inches long. So you would need a 6K920 which is 92.0".
