It is a shorter accesory belt that deletes power steering and A/C compressor. It is good for 8-10 HP at the track. Part number is 538K6 and you can get it at most auto part stores.

Depends. are you going to take it to the track? Then yes swap out your belt before you run. As far as a street application, good luck driving w/o ps. I had to drive mine 1/2 mile or so when it through the belt off.....It was next to impossible parking it. Not worth it if you ask me.
