Goodyear Gatorback for '92, 302 4wd

I've been searching, but no part store within @ least 50 miles of me carries Goodyear Gatorback serp. belts. I have looked @ SummitRacing, but they offer different lengths. I currently have a Gates serp., and it's length is 91.625, but I cannot seem to locate one for just this motor, unless I specify Mustang. My Gates belt seems to stretch quite a bit more more due to the added heat and humdity here in Mid-Mizzou and the added stress from the A/C.

The closest I come to in size appears to be the 91.50 in. P/N: 4060915 or more drastically, the 90.50 in. P/N:4060905. I would think the first P/N would be a better fit rather than the latter since the 1' shorter belt would apply to much force to the water pump and other accessories.

Can anyone confirm the correct length they have used for this motor or vouch for the P/N listed for the 91.50 in.?

Thanks again for any advice.

NAPA # NBH 25060910 shows to be 91.68 inches long. That was looked up with what information you posted.

It's NOT a Gatorback, I was just confirming the size.

Well, According to one spec for the Gates belt, the "Outside Circumference is 91.68 in." I guess the best route is to go with a 91.50 inside or so I hope that is what Summit Racing means when they measure the belt. That 3/16 would be close to 91.50 from O.C. of 91.68.

Anyone here have a size to confirm for the 302 or a part #? I'm really interested since these belts have a Great Reputation here on FTE.
