so after long searches what belts are people using????what belt if you dont use power steering?what if you aint got ac??? i think this is a vital thing due to the fact usdm is 4 rib while ve is 6 ribs lemme know what ya got

I'm running the same belts I used with my DE. That because all the stuff is from my DE.

i would say measure the run of the area u have now and then check a hose and belt dealer to see what they gats nearest to it. then u can use the tensioner to sort it out

I ran my alternator with a 4 rib belt (the stock one is a 6 rib iirc) I forget the size but you can use the same belt. mine was at the end of the tension fully tight and it wasn't perfetc but it ran fine.

ya im runnin the 4 rib right now too its just hard to believe no one thought to post belt sizes yet.and i tried measuring but no one has the size its to short

Sorry I would have but I'm a few hundred miles from my garage. The six rib version is almost impossible to find. If you search its in there somewhere.

30.5 inch belt for the ac delete. 6 rib available at your local NAPA.

With AC delete, the belt # is 325k6

Are the belt lengths the same as on the DE if you use all the VE accessories (alternator, AC compressor, PS pump, WP)? If so, do they correspond to highport, lowport, or RR (or are those all the same length)? If not, what length are they? (I can look up the stock DE length if nobody remembers offhand but does know that the same length works.)

this should help my friend has a ve in hid b13 with no ac and he uses a 327k4 belt from auto zone for a 2001 se and its 32.75 inch or 825 mm :biggthump

The belts are all the same between the de and ve. It is fine to run the 4 rib belt. There are threads all over this forum discussing belt sizes.

no p/s belt measurement is around 26" and i think the don't have a belt that size. For de i think people u a 25" belt but 4 ve the ve h20 pump is a bit bigger so the 25" won't work. Next size up is 27.5" and it's obviously too big. I found this out from doin a ve swap recently and ended up using just the pump in order to run a belt. For alt belt size is 4040327(gatorback) stock pulley and if using gspec crank it's something like 4040315.

Here is some stock belt sizes
