Belt sizes

Hi, I recently purchased a Pearson 323 that has an Atomic 4 engine. I am away from the boat but would like to purchased spare belts for the alternator and raw water pump before I go to the boat next. Can anyone tell me what the size of these belts are? I believe the engine has not been modified in anyway so both would be the original configuration.
Thanks, Scott

Scott,

The 323 with the original Motorola 35 amp alternator takes a 25" belt. If it has the 55 amp alternator, it takes a 26".

The early 323s that had A4s came OEM with raw water cooling, so there is no "standard" pump arrangement for FWC.
I believe the Moyer add-on pump at the flywheel also takes a 26" belt.

Talking

There can also be difference in width. Early engines ran 3/8" while later ones are 1/2".
