Lots of unknowns there
Big block or small block ? Crank pulley, wide or narrow ? Same on the saginaw , wide or narrow pulley?
Bracket makes a differance also. Many older ones were the self tighten / tennsion style and later ones are not.
Make sure your pulleys are the same width , get everything mounted and lined up.
Slide your ps pump to the inboard side of the adjuster slot.
Grab a tape measure and see what you have.
Brand .... I use napa or gates myself but everyone has their favorites.
I've got ps on my 67 and it's a RB next trip out to the shop I will see if I can see a belt #.

belt # would be GREAT THX
 
What he's saying is that nobody can give you a belt number for a mystery engine. The easiest way is to bolt up what you have, run a string around the pulleys, measure the string, find a parts guy older than 25......done.
 
If its a big block and you end up with the same pullies, brackets, etc. I used on the 440 in my 66 Charger you might find that a 15435 Dayco works
