I ordered a new fan belt fro Victoria British, and their catalog said it should be a 1/2" belt. Well today I tried to inastall it , and it looks like my car has 3/8" pulleys and belt. Has anyone else ever ran into this or is my car just weird? Shound I order a belt for a earlier 100-6?(V.B. list these as having 3/8ths pulleys?
 
Hi 66,
If you go HERE and look at items 51 & 53, you'll see BJ8 engines up to 29K-H10271 used the 3/8" pulley.
 
Earlier BJ8s had the narrow fan belt.
