it can be done if you change the waterpump to a normal rotation.
otherwise you'd have to take your chances with the belt slipping on the waterpump pulley with the belt barely touching the waterpump pulley.

1985 I think crown vic 351w waterpump (normal rotation rather than reverse).
stock alternator bracket/smog pump 43.5" belt I believe
you can't run the stock waterpump with the belt like that, it would have to wrap around the bottom of the pulley and not the top, in my case that caused horrible belt slip/squeal so this is what I came up with.
