First, convert to a belt drive from what.?
HTD is the belt to use. Pulley size will depend on how you do it and the resolution you want. Don't think because it's a 5mm pitch belt that's the actual pitch or linear movement you'll get because it's not. The diameter of the pulley x Pi is the actual pitch you'll end up with. So depending on how it's done and pully size you could need a gear ratio to give the resolution you need.!
