For real though, they're probably both good ways to do it.

In other news, I'm thinking of putting my emissions back on and I'm wondering if I can still run the dual alternator pulley. That'd be one long belt...

I don't think you can. The airpump belt will ride where the 2nd belt on the dual pulley will go. You can leave the dual pulley on, but it will have one unused sheath.

Hmmm, I'm having trouble picturing it in my head. Is it possible to still use the 2nd alternator pulley slot? In theory...

You'll see why once you reinstall the air pump. The belt going to it will ride on the "other" side of the water pump pulley as opposed to the alternator belt.

GuitarJunkie28 used to sell serpentine conversion kits for our cars. There may be a few sets in circulation, but they haven't been made ever since he passed away.

And yeah, NAPA part 3L220 is the "yoohoo" belt.
