The water pump seems like a wash one way or the other mechanical vs. electric if the electric one is sized to cool the engine correctly in all conditions. A lot of the drag race ones scare me a bit as they look more like a fish tank cirulator than a pump that will flow enough water and actually generate water pressure in the block. The altenator will only use what it needs to support the electrical loads plus bearing friction. Playing with some numbers 1 hp is 745 watts and dividing by 13.8 volts that is 54 amps. Not to lose track of either is the belt actually does consume some power on it's own because it flexs and does generate heat. An interesting test would be to put an electric drill on each device and measure the current it takes to spin it just to get an idea how much each uses.

Do you still have them available for $129.99 shipped
and
Does anyone have a picture with it installed to show how well it cleans up the engine compartment?

Thanks

I'm putting on headers and removing all smog parts.

I'll check back later today on how to pay you.

At least some belt suppliers have the length as part of the part number. Even without it, they can pull a belt any length you want.

Try installing your stock belt. From there, decide how much too loose it is. Because there's adjustment in these delete kits, you probably can buy at least two lengths and have it work. I think my particular kit ending up being a couple inches shorter. I tried an inch shorter, then returned to get another inch shorter.

NO BIG DEAL! Buying a serpentine belts is easy-peasy.
