Its simple to pull the belt off so just pull it off in their parking lot and have them match it if thats your only mode of transportation.

Re: '85 gt 5.0 serpentine belt help

hows this.. i did take the old one in my friend drove me back up there because the first time the guy didnt ask if it had ac so i ended up with a belt for one w/o ac which didnt even occur to me until i went to put it on so when i went back the guy took my old one to make sure said hes never wrong and i went home and the belt wasnt snug it was just a little to loose.. and when i called he kept insisting that i was wrong with my routing of the belt.. im just going to try a 91 inch long belt im pretty sure thats what it was

It seems there are 2 belts for that car. One w/factory installed a/c and one with dealer installed a/c . I think you want the one w/factory installed a/c.
Part#
(Standard) K060910 It is 91.11 in length.
