Of course that is not the way Porsche says to do it.....

The 83.5 belt is correct. But a new belt is stiff and hard to put in unless you have 3 hands. I am able to do it by myself because I use an 18" breaker bar to depress the tensioner and hold the breaker bar down with my leg. Then I am able to use both hands to thread the belt on.
Yep, that's exactly the one I was referring to. BTW, I'm using either a 82.25 or 82.5 inch belt with the underdrive pulley.
