Belt change - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

So I decided to change my belt today, I think the car had the original belt on it. It had GM on it and it was in quite sad shape (chunks missing). Anyway I got it all loose and the couldn't get the belt off of the top pulley...the upper plenum was in the way. Is this normal? I was not in a shop I was at my home and went ahead and drained some coolant and loosened the plenum and got it off and the new one on...but what a PITA!
