Your question is VERY VAGUE be more specific in you question. What about the belt? Is it wrong? damaged?, etc....

 

uhhh. i dont have the belt. so i need to know the proper size to use/purchase for an H22's altenator belt minus the AC compressor. because i dont have an AC compressor.

 

This is easy. Just take a non streching piece of rope/string and wrap it around the pulley's that will be used. This only needs to be accurate to about 1/2 inch. Make sure all the adjusters in are in the middle of their adjustment range. Measure the string, and tell the auto parts place how many inches you have and they should (if their any good) be able to give you the right sized belt. The last four numbers of the belt part number should be the same as the inches measured. i.e. 31.5 inches measured = 3150 (I think if I remeber correctly). Note this is just an example not the size you need. I used this method on my gsr to eg hatch swap with no problem.

 

why dont you just go to the honda dealer and get an h22 alternator belt? whats wrong with doing that? the motor's parts have nothing to do with the car in this situation.

 

isn't the AC compressor on the same belt as the altenator?

and i'm aware of the string thing, i just figured maybe someone would know from havin done this swap.

 

the ac compressor and the alternator have two different belts and two separate slots on the pulley.

 

ok, checkin with places trying to find the alt belt, yeilded me being told repeatedly that its an "a/c & altenator belt" plus when i look into the car, yea, one belt needed.

its a 97 SH block if that helps anyone.
