Does anybody have the right belt size to use with the power steering and deleted a/c? Since my fmic install when i snapped the condenser's line and let the gas out, I have not had the a/c system working. I'm not sure if i'll fix it or delete it for good but since its getting cold and i'm not gonna need it till next year....Just figured i'd try saving the weight and going to the track(nov 17) for the last time this year/season and seeing if there is any improvements(there should be--minus 80 lbs worth of non essentials for racing)

TIA https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/BURNOUT.gif later

I forgot to ask....that shouldnt affect the engine too much right? Any tunning needed? just trying to avoid any and all problems....

the dealer lists that belt, maybe the afermarket does too?

the ac system is about 40lbs

I hate going to the dealer cause they always look at me like I'm crazy only to find that I was right....clueless about rotaries. I was hoping to get the size but I guess I'll order the belt from mazdatrix

thanx

360k6 is the right belt. and if memory serves me my stuff weighed 26.5lb via a UPS scale. (no box)
