Serpentine Setup

I bought a serpentine setup from another member on these boards and all I need is a belt and the bolts but I have a few questions.

Im not running smog pump or Ac so I can just use A smaller belt instead of getting 2 delete pulleys? I just clicked the Alternator/ Power steering belt on summits site so Im assuming thats all i need right?

Question 2, What bolts do I need? I found the water pump bolts but dotn know if I have the short water pump or the long one. Do I just have to buy each bolt for the alternator/ power steering pump individually bc I couldnt find a kit that included those on summits site?

Thanks for answering my dumb questions lol

Steven

I have never done this specific conversion so I can't help much. To answer one of your questions I'm pretty sure that our cars have the long water pump. However I believe you will need to change your water pump (install one off of a serpentine set up car) as it will be rotated differently.
