Default SBC New Style PS Pump set up question

I need a little guidance and a pic of a SBC/Merc set up with '86 and later PS/Alternator bracket/belt routing.

Here's my issue....in converting my old Pre-Alpha 260's to Vortec I am changing everything...exhaust is old log style to new center riser style. All of the brackets are different...I am using the low alternator/high PS pump combo bracket that bolts to the front of the cylinder head and block. My problem is that I can't run a belt from the crank pulley up to the PS pulley with out interfering with the water pump pulley. Is the a twin belt set up for this with a twin belt water pump pulley?

Thanks in advance.

OK...just answered this by looking at pics of my buddy Brian's 272 Formula restoration...there is a twin belt pulley!!

Forgive me for the dumb a$$ moment...it's Saturday night and I've been over at the shop working on this stuff.

Default P/s pump

Mr. Sprink;
Sorry I didn't read sooner. I could have answered, w/pic (same set up) Taking dyno $$ to Pensacola on Fri. Looking forward to wrapping my project up. Middle of May brain surgery for removal of tangerine size Glioblastoma tumor has set me back a bit. Hope you
have made out OK with storm weather. Thanks for answering some of my previous posts, I'll have more.
Best regards,
Rory
no dumb azz questions when we DON'T know.
