I'd like the engine bay to be a bare as possible and I'm not running a/c or power steering. My question is regarding the belt routing for the alternator and water pump. Below is an image of how I would like the belt to run. I figured I would get a march #2004 grooved w/p pulley, std rotation water pump, and fabricate an adjusting mechanism for the a/p eliminator or the alternator. Has anyone else done this? Is there an easier way? Thanks in advance for any help you can give. <br /><br /> <img src="http://i170.photobucket.com/albums/u241/Starquesttsi/beltrouting.jpg" alt=" - " /><br /> <br /> <small>[ December 14, 2009, 06:54 PM: Message edited by: Persuader66 ]</small> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>Blind</b> <br /><small>Member # 3052</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2009,11,14,19,30,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> I did it minus the vortech kit on my `89 for a few years.<br /><br /> <img src="http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e237/blindbatts/mustang/5-5-08/DSCN3584Large.jpg" alt=" - " /><br /><br />just used a `85 crown vic 351 water pump that spun the opposite way as my stock one, then used the stock 5.0 alternator/smog pump bracket and idler pulley.

So just eliminate the A/p pulley all together and move the alt to the drivers side. What's that kit going to set me back? Do you have a p/n by chance? I couldn't find the kit on summit's site.
