You may just have to use a 3/4" tape measure, and measure it as best as you can! I like air conditioning!
if i could find my notes. thinkin its right at 5" shorter
i pulled the tensioner all the way back, took the belt off the comp. & pulled the belt together & marked. measured the distance between the marks

Your welcome, it took two attempts, I was a little short on the first guess.
FYI, the compressor must be removed for this to work. The compressor is right in the path of the belt so I'm pretty sure you can't just throw on a different belt when want to go to the track.

Nope. All that stuff is sitting in the quonset, I took it all out. Getting to the firwall is pretty straight forward and easy to do. It probably wouldn't take a hour to eliminate up to there as long as you have the line disconnect tools.

Well I do believe the A/C cycles during defrosting, but I haven't really studied how it all functions. The way I did it was I eliminated everything (A/C, heater, blower motor, etc) so it really is a non issue for me as for what will and won't work. None of it will work, I am a little skeptical still on if this was a good idea or not but it's too late now.
If this was my daily driver I would never do what I have done.
As for your last comment, anything can be done. Someone just has to figure it out and be brave enough to try.

The A/C Does run anytime the Defrost is on. This is what dehumidifies the air and clears the glass.
Yeah I also don't drive my truck everyday, I mean I bought a car before without A/C from the factory and it still had a defrost. thats my question. If I remove the a/c unit. wonder if it would still defrost, I'm going to say it would, maybe not as good. I have no clue.
So have you drove the truck yet ?
