Count the multi-grooves on each pulley. Mine had six on one and more on the alternator. Changed to the six grove belt and end of story. Yes the alternator had one extra grove but works great.

well as for the tear on the belt the power stering pump is proably not so good enymore if the pully spin with the belt then it no good and when your put the belt back make sure you got it on right if you crank it and the power steering pulley isint moving then your just gonna shred another belt after another
I would suspect the water pump, power steering noises are usually grinding sounds. Also if the belts shredded check behind ALL the pulleys for the reinforcing strands from the belts. Basing this on general car problems , not any actual Chevy.
Check to see that no bolts or mounting brackets are loose causing the power steering pump to be out of alignment with the rest of the pulleys. When replacing the belt make sure it is seated correctly on the pulley because if it is one ridge off it will cause the belt to shred very quickly.
Hi:
If your engine is running, but no belts are moving, you either have a belt broken, or the tensioner is broken. You need to have this fixed ASAP, as your vehicle wont have power steering or charging.
There is a special puller that needs to be purchased along with a chain wrench which holds the pulley while unscrewing the hold down nut or bolt, use a length of an old leather belt wrapped around the pulley to protect the grooves in the pulley surface or the belts will be shredded after a week of use. set the puller on the inner ring on the face of pulley make sure the puller purchased is compatable with your vehicle.
The power steering pump will have a tensioner you need to loosen. Then for the other belt. There is a tensioner located on the pass side. You can see it if you look down the pass side of the engine.
