How many grooves in your AC belt
 
I need to know how many cars are out there with the three groove belt. I have three on my car but four on the extra engine I have on a stand.
I need to know how to design my S/C kit.

4 ribs and 3 grooves on belt. 9/03 build.

Bad news....
 
Mine is a very early build date (April '03) and has FIVE (count 'em 5!) bumps on it.

:doh:
