I’m afraid that depends ed. In my ignorance I changed my 17ACR alternator when it failed, for a more modern one with better output. Trouble is the dimensions are different and I had to alter the adjusting bracket to get enough adjustment AND I had to change the length of the fanbelt. Easiest thing to do is find a friendly retailer (like the one I have here in Scotland) that will lend you a selection of belts to try on the engine until you get one that fits. When you find that buy 2! and take a note of the part no…

PS - I’m now getting my old alternator repaired so I’ll fit that when I get it back.

Seams a 788 belt is the one that fits my +2 S130/4 (1972). Thanks for the advice
