1969 Fan Belts

[Richard G.]

Gentlemen

Any know what style belts, "cut" vs. "Wrap", were on a late built 1969 BB? I'm just trying to verify what the proper style was.

Thanks

As far as I know, they were all of "wrapped" construction. I don't think that "cut" style belts came into general use until 1973. I'm not 100% sure about this, though.

I spoke with the guys over at Quanta, figuring that they might be a good source, and they said that the belts were changed around the 1970 year model and that the assembly manual they use shows cut belts for the alternator and the AIR pump but the Idler belt was "Wrapped" It didn't make sense to me so I was hoping for some help to figure what was correct.

Thanks
