well the c16xe conversion is nearly done but my b/f ran into a problem,
we used the original mounts for the conversion which means the alternator belt needs to be shorter
we are also not using the power steering so thats another pulley down which means it needs to shorter again
We sorced a adjustable mount for the alternator so we can adjust the tightness of the belt ow so its alote like the 1.2 8v set up
but now we don know where to get a shorter v groove belt
any ideas of where i can get 1 made? is this a common conversion problem? any ideas of where i can get 1?
cheers for looking

It should use a standard, non-powersteering C16XE belt
If there's not a non-powersteering C16XE one, use a non-powersteering X14XE belt.
