Default What Blower belt for a BBC, 8/71, w/intercooler

I need a blower belt for a BBC with a 8/71 blower with a 4" tall superchiller. What am I looking for ????

Would a 8mm-gt-1600-84 work or is this for use with out a intercooler????

Tall deck I presume. 1600 is what I ran on intercooled
tall decks standard chevy style heads.
Keep in mine that the size of your pulleys plays a roll.
I was sporting 52 on crank and 47 on blower.
A snout tensioner will allow for more of a variance.

Considering the advice that Pure Energy has given
ya may want to address that first.

The chiller is 4" high so you need a belt 8"longer than the belt you have know.
