530k5 is the alternator belt listed by advance auto as the replacement. 410k6 for the power steering and ac.

it depends, are you running power steering and ac? either or? It will depend, if you have a belt, you can probably make it fit, if its in the vicinity. Because you have a tensioner that you can make the belt tighter or looser. So thats what it depends on? do you have greddy pullies? Or anything aftermarket? Also you can loosen your alternator and pull it down to loosen the belt, or use the idle tensioner, which is to the right of the alternator. GOOD LUCK!

well the car is stock as far as the pullies are concerned. i have an after market exhaust and boost controller. the water seals are going so i know its going to need a rebuild. I might have someone do it next week or something. depending if the weather holds up. the first belt they gave me was way too short.. i had to loose the airpump and alternator all the way. and the belt would nnot fit, it was too tight.. bbl.. i am going to try another belt. its getting cold and dark i want to get home.

Something around 530k5 should work, but a k6 will almost certainly not work because it is a wider, 6 ribbed belt. You cold probably get away with a k4 temporarily.

does this have to do with belts being too tight? or just worn. maybe both?
