Hey guys. Does anyone know what size belt to put on the water pump and main pulley if you're not running ps? I searched but no good results. Just wanting to know the write up for it, like belt size and such. Thanks guys! Also...

Is that under the intake manifold? looks like a coolant line that runs just under the collectors.
No idea about PS

Yeah it's under the intake mani, and I figured it was, just wanted to make sure is all.
Yeah I dunno about the ps either, but I figured I'm not going to run it for the simple fact that I've driven a few without it and liked it better than having it, and I don't have a pump or anything for it so I'm not worried about it. xD If anyone knows anything about it let me know how you did it!

WAIT, how have you been driving it without the pump and no belt? If I were you, just buy a crappy pump and put it on there with no lines.
For sure a coolant line then, My friend had to take the manifold apart to fix a leak he had there. PITA
