98 vortec questions

Hey all.

Got a few questions that I can't seem to find answers to anywhere.

Bit of info before I proceed. The car is a 1987 camaro with p/s heater and ac delete. Motor going in is a carbed 1998 vortec 5.7.

1. I'd like to know if I can use a electric 35gpm 12volt, 7amp draw waterpump
(If so, what do I do about the "bypass" I keep reading about and can't make sense of)

2. Is there room in our cars to use a low mount passenger side alternator.

3. If using a electric water pump, do I buy a crank pulley and alternator bracket for a short water pump or long?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated as I would like to start buying parts and get this motor in asap
