What Size Motor Pulley (?)

I recently found a rebuilt Quincy 325 air compressor and a 5 horse Baldor 184T Frame motor to power it up on an 80 gallon receiver tank. The Quincy has its flywheel, but what size motor pulley should I get for the Baldor? It runs at 1725 rpm . . . Mike in Maryland

Thanks for the help Osviur! I'm new to assembling and using my own, decent sized, air compressor. Can I assume that 750 RPM is a good all around speed for general shop usage? Oh, and these days who makes a high quality, twin grooved, motor pulley - Browning?
