A 78 5/8 is the one I used with the same set-up Mike, that should take care of you........or you could just get the Riechard Racing Manual Tensioner and chose about any belt length and never worry about belt slip again. :D :thumbsup:

Yeah 78 5/8" should be ok. Make sure that you put the lower idler on the upper position on the lower pulley bracket plate. I have the exact set up with a 77.4" belt. I had to put the lower idler on the lower bracket position to make mine fit. The advantage of the upper position is better belt wrap but will require a longer belt. Mine is very tight. Belt size selection is very aggravating.
