If a small block originally had a SWP and you change to a LWP, that does not automatically mean none of the pulleys will line up. If you try and use SWP pulleys with a LWP, then yes, but not of you change all of the pulleys and brackets to the correct components as the OP seems to be doing.

If it originally had a short pump, and your CCW pump will be a long pump (if it is a stock pump for a serpentine equipped engine) then things will definitely not line up.
Also, don't forget that you will need a CCW fan as well.
