Yeah we use string as well. I try and find a string or rope that fits in the bottom of the pulley, my alternator has a small landing in the bottom of the pulley. Then they just use that belt measuring tool they have and the rope fits in there just like on the motor.
I get my belts at the local parts store. BS with them a little about the racecar and they usually never have a problem with me buying a few sizes and bringing back the ones I don't need.
Crew Chief "Tip of the day":
Most handling problems can be solved by adjusting the screw-ball. It can be difficult to fine tune at times. Explaining yourself loudly and striking it on top of the helmet with a dead blow hammer usually works well.
