But when SiB and Phil pulled the engine out before the rebuild (they got the engine out in about 30 mins ), they cut the belts (all of the belts - including the cambelt) with a stanley knife and threw them away............

Stu, Bud-weis, thanks for the offers.

I gave the motor factors reg number of a RWD Cossie, and I am 98% sure that I have the correct ones.

600 mm
and 614mm

Thing is, SiB now has an RS500 drop bracket fitted, so I dont know how that effects the alternator belt lengths
