Long story short, I believe my 682's Series I KT17 finally gave up the ghost yesterday so now in an effort to keep my snow moving equipment running, I am going to transfer the QA42A to my 14hp 129. So that means I need to get a new 1/2 pulley for it and order a belt. I'm looking around on McMaster-Carr.com and have settled on part number 6204k22.

I selected a cast iron 4.15" pulley with a 3/4 bore to use. I believe in looking around online, this is the pulley many have used on there machines but want to make sure. Also, what is pitch dia and how would it effect my setup (i.e. did I pick a pulley with the right 3.4" pitch dia. for a type A belt)? Does anyone who's ordered these pulleys from mcmastercarr know if they have set screws in them?
Next up, since I'm getting a slightly smaller pulley (4.15" vs 4.5"), what's a good belt size to use? Would a 30" 1/2" belt work for me or should I go smaller? Any words of advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks!!
