BTW, that 30" is if the stock main pulley is on the car. If an underdrive pulley is being used, it will be about a 28.5" belt.

The best way is to take a string and go around the path of the pulley. Then measure the distance. That way you won't be making too many trips back and forth to the store to get the right sized belt.

Take a string, and run it from the alternator down to the main pulley, and then back up again with the side touching the water pump pulley. Now, measure how long that was for the whole trip (which should be about 30" with the stock pullies).
