AC Delete
I used a NAPA 060685 belt and still had to move the alternator in towards the center. I don't know they got the 060670 belt to work, it wasn't nearly long enough for me.
To move the alternator, I simply drilled another hole in the Air Pump delete bracket for the top alt bolt inboard of the original hole. If you have the BPP version of the air pump delete you will need to flip the pully to alt bar around because it has an indent on the alt end. When you go to drill the hole you will see what I mean.
PS. You may want to consider replacing your tensioner if you haven'y already. My pulley blew apart the other night and that means no water pump or electricity

Glad I could help. It bolts right in your ac brackets, so no modifying anything. If you want to get into modifying, and want more room, take the ac out of the housing, but leave the heater core, then you can chop the whole front off the housing and fab it flat. I can pull my headers with starter and plugs still in the car
