Z6 block, bracket, mount. Y7 alternator.
With the alt adjusted all the way back, there is still a couple inches or so of slack in the belt. Compared the Y7 alt mount to a Z6, as well as the bracket, and they're the same. This makes me think the belt length is different for the two, or maybe the alt pulley is different in size. I don't have a Z6 alt and I need to get my car running today. Can I use a smaller belt for it to work?

Don't need an AC belt if thats what you were referring to the AC for (no AC for me).
Charging the battery after troubleshooting some CELs so I can make it to the parts store to get a belt.
