[Healeys] 100 fanbelts

[john harper]

Mike

The original belts were 32 degrees whereas most modern belts are 36,38 and
40. I have not found a UK A-H supplier that can supply the correct item. To
give the best drive without slippage the angle of the belt should be
virtually the same as the pulleys.

There are still New Old Stock belts available if one searches around. Below
is a list of possible belts but be careful about the overall length because
there was more than one dynamo pulley fitted.
 Ferodo V150 with the following dimensions: Outside Circumference 47.4
inches, Inside Circumference 47.3 inches Top Width 0.75 Thickness 0.5 Angle
32 degrees inclusive

A near equivalent, and sometimes recommended alternative, is the

Ferodo V104 with an O.C. of 46.1”. This is rather tight: and may need the
dynamo to be partly removed to fit it. Other equivalents are;

Mintex TK 474

Romac C738,

and a later addition Raybestos  R289


All the best
