Put the pulley on. Then with a string, trace around the routes of the belts. Measure the string to find the length belt(s) you require.

i found out what length i needed by mocking up the original belt to the new setup and estimating how much longer i would need to get around the last pulley. and just get the shortest one that will fiton , the alt adjustment will take out whatever slack is there. rcc also has a thread on this with belt sizes listed for different setups but im too lazy to look it up
