« on: April 29, 2009, 02:17:09 PM »
I'm just now finishing up my 318ti into e30 swap (do to cracked head at number 3cyl rear exhaust valve). i want to keep the serpentine belt but i've removed the a/c and powersteering. has anyone done this conversion? my problem is routing the belt. not sure exactly how i'm goin to do it yet. hopefully going to figure it out tonight.

Maybe you can find a belt from a different make/model that is the right diameter to fit without those accessories?  Take a string and measure the size you need, then bring it into an auto parts store to see if they can help you find one that'll work.
