Smog - AC belt
« on: January 24, 2015, 09:23:35 PM »
1967 C  code coupe with PS, AC and T/E has a Gates  #9620 Smog - AC belt that's been on there forever.  Gates still makes the belt, but I have yet to source a correct application FoMoCo belt. Any suggestions for a supplier?

Are you looking for a Fomoco belt or a reproduction. Marti auto works makes pretty good reproduction. Perkin's Restorations may have a NOS one.

For this application a reproduction belt will be OK. Thank you for the sources and I will follow up.

Just checked Marti site; I'll have to call them to get more info about belt availability.  Their catalog lists only a belt for "Smog w/o AC."

The belt I need for the '67 is for Smog, w/AC.  It's a little wider than the other two v-belts and runs off the forward sheave of three sheave crank pulley, driving both the smog pump and AC compressor.  Gates belt number is 9620 and I think there's a Motorcraft part conversion.

They will get it right, just tell them what you have, they got it right for me needing the exact same belt
