Thanks in advance.

There is a tech article on this!

 

Hmmn, think I gotta find what shop Engineboy works at the next time I *need* to pass a smog test

 

You dont need a pulley all you need is a differant belt but I forget the size

 

Get a Gates K060975. Or a belt that's 97.5" long. I think the tech article says to use one that's 80", but that was too long for my car. Actually I've done this to both my thirdgens, and the 97.5" fit fine on both. If you want you can plug the manifolds with 1/4" brass plugs to clean up the engine bay a little more.
