Default 70 LS5 belts?

I am getting things ready to put the engine in next month, after over 20 years of being apart before I bought the car, and trying to figure out the belts. What belts do I get for a car that has AC and PS? I'm running original pulleys and brackets

I really don't really need the restoration belts. Paragon lists different lengths than the auto parts houses and rather not buy belts just to return them for others. At least if someone has them already it would be a good starting point.

There are plenty of threads about LS5 belts and tricks to installing the crank to wp belt.

Here is what I have listed in my notebook.

My belts:
Crank to WP- Gates 7320
PS- Gates 7435 or 7440 if you want it slightly longer.
AC- Gates 7460 or 9463 if you want a wider belt.
Alt.- Gates 7312
