What you have is an underdrive pulley. The negligible HP increase is not worth the loss in power going to your alternator, PS pump and A/C compressor. If I were you, I'd sell it and try to find a Perrin LW pulley.

Sending something fast is a GOOD thing. If you sent him money without doing your homework, that's on you.

As for getting a belt, there's the stock tension adjustment which should be able to handle the difference, but if not, you set the tensioner in the middle of its travel and take a string or something to wrap around the pulleys like a belt to measure what you need, then go to an auto parts store and buy something with about the same length. Since you set the tensioner in the middle of its adjustment when you measured, you know the belt you find can be off a little from the length you measured and still fit. If you want to be really thorough, you could take the measurements at the top and bottom of the tensioner's adjustment so you know your exact length range.

Getting a belt to fit really shouldn't be too big a deal. You might have to run to the auto parts store a couple of times but that is about it. The only decrease in performance you will notice is the ac won't work as well when you are in town stop and go. Once you stay rolling it works fine. I keep meaning to tint my windows and haven't got around to it yet.

If you put it on you should notice a difference in performance, slight but worth it.
