I searched the forum and read many of the posts on installing the serpentine belt and thought it would be easy.
I bought the special tool and can easily move the tensioner thru the full swing and removing the old belt was easy.
When comparing the new belt to the old it is about 3/8 shorter. I purchased the belt from Corvettecentral.com
My problem is the new belt is so tight I can not get it over the last pulley. The alternator small pulley is on top so I am trying to put it on last.
Which pulley should be the last one to slide the belt over? Are there any other tricks?
Thanks for you help
