MG MGA - Fan belt

Does anyone know the exact length of the replacement fan belt on an MGA 1500? I tried a 35 inch and it was too small.
Many thanks,

I think it is NAPA 09033, which is 36-1/4" for the standard generator. That would be 920-mm (92-cm). If you get it a little too short you may have to dismount the generator to get the belt on. This is s little tricky though, because there were two different generator pulleys for pushrod engines, and two different pulleys for Twin Cam engines, making (I think) four different belt lengths that were standard.
