I bought an under drive crank pulley from FWD Performance. It came with belts, but they're all too short.
It's the right pulley and all the accessories have their original pulleys.
Anyone else have an issue with this?
I emailed FWD, but haven't heard back yet.
When did you email them? If it was today, I'd give them some time to answer.

what year is your car? stock waterpump?
Some A/C pulleys, and A/C idler pulleys are larger than others, depending on what compressor you have. PS belt should fit though.
It's an 86.
I emailed them on Monday.
It's not a big deal, I can measure and get belts that fit from the auto parts store. It's just a pain in the ---.
Andy,
Come and see me tomorrow. I'll be working. We can figure out what you need.
Joe.
Just call them, I don't understand why all of a sudden people are scared of the phone?

Thanks to Joe for his help finding these.
close enough, here's the file I keep so I always know what belt lengths to get for my cars since I run a UDP and older style water pump.
These are the Part #'s and lengths I use on my 87 ShelbyZ which is a
2.5 with the old waterpump setup so the belt lengths should be the
same.
5040 37.8"
15 41.0"
15 46.0"
The 5040 # I believe is the alt/waterpump belt. And the 2nd # starting
with 15 is the PS and the next is A/C. Take all the #'s in each line
for a total part #. The last 3 digits (37.8) for example is the length
of the belt.
just a random question....how big of a difference do these make? noticable?
Not sure if this helps...my 86 Laser XT with the 89 common block, 86 water pump (groove not smooth pulley) and 86 power steering pump, and an underdrive pulley (came with the engine, not sure who's it is):

hehe I did mine through trial and error.
As for a difference?? well on my 89 CB 2.5 that had an aluminum flywheel, not to much. It did spin much faster when the starter was engaged in the morning. Made a machine gun sound instead of a boom boom boom sound when starting. So the starter is definately turning it over much easier. But you really didn't feel much difference.
On my 89 CB 2.2 Auto it made a much more noticable difference, the car was MUCH smoother, and felt like you had bolted a 2.5 under the hood instead of the 2.2. MPG climbed 1-2 MPG consitently.
I'll run them on all my cars no matter what.
