Bob, I installed the Lenschow kit (P/N ALT-2163) on my late BJ8 in 2002.
The instructions that came with the kit said that "Fan belt must be one size
larger with this kit, NAPA #15455  7/16 X 45 X 1/8"
I found this belt to be too short to install.  The NAPA guy replaced it with
one that did fit and it's still on my car.  NAPA P/N is 25-9451.  The Gates
equivalent is 31/64 X 45 X 3/8

List,
I'm putting a BJ8 together slowly. I have installed a Lenschow alternator
conversion and purchased a fan belt from one of our leading suppliers. 
I simply asked for a late BJ8 fan belt, the alternator intructions imply to
use the original fan belt. 
Today the new fan belt is agood 1/2 inch short of being installed. 
Does anyone have a NAPA part number for a fan belt to fit a late BJ8 with an
alternator?
The belt I have is labeled 77x1100, 77 seems good but not the 1100.
Bob
