One question I do have is, how close can the belts be to other items? I'm a bit concerned with the clearance between the belt coming from the alternator and one of the bolt heads for the power steering pump bracket as there is only about 1/16" clearance.
Take off the bracket and counter sink the hole the bolt goes through. Then use a countersunk Allen head bolt to replace the hex bolt you currently are using.
