We should all carry a set of belts or two with us at all times. Here is some info on the belts for a 1985 454. These are Gates numbers which should be cross-referenced. Front belt, 15495, wraps crank pulley, water pump, alternator, and single smog pump on right side. Middle belt, 15590, wraps crank, power steering, air cond, water pump. Rear belt, 15415, wraps crank and power steering. ------------------ | ||

FWIW, my 84 also has those numbers. To add to that, buy ONLY Gates. They seem to last longer. Carry new Gates spares (marked for position) in a vacuum sealed foodsaver bag. | |||

Wonder if there is a belt specifically for a 454 without the smog pump? Guess a trip to NAPA is in order. | ||||

Ron, when I am doing a non-standard belt setup, I start out with a too-long junk belt, cut it to what I think is the right size, then measure and buy. | |||
