Sorry wasn't pick'n or rushing you for answers- So this was the first time you put the engine in the buggy to see if it would even fit?! Another question-is the brake caliper still on the rotor?,as it looked like the engine is very close to the rotor.You'll figure it all out!!!!That's the fun part of making a Frankenbuggy!!!Can you try to get somemore pics with a little more distance from the buggy so I/we can see the bigger picture of the whole engine compartment in realationship to the engine size?Parts Unlimited.com had the best price and selection of snowmobile belts- they list them by width and length.
By the way- I bought up dead 6-71 GMC blowers from the big rig wrecking yard back in the late 70's and re-vamped/milled them with new rotors,oiling system and gears for myself and buddies- I would plane down the top of an aluminum intake manifold back before pop-off valves were needed/available to the general public.Nothing adds horsepower like a roost style blower!!!!!!
