The old compressor I was using temporarily (just so the belt would stay on) had a ~5" pulley, but the correct compressor's pulley is nearly 6", so that belt doesn't fit now. This is the '93 5.8L belt (K61020), and it's just slightly too long, but it'll certainly work for a while. I guess I need a K61010 or K61005. UPDATE: About 2.5 years after this pic, the tensioner boss rubbed through the radiator hose. So I ground down that top rear corner before installing the replacement hose.
