Default LS1 Accessory Drive Non A/C Setup Question

I am installing an LS1 from an '00 Camaro in a 72 Chevelle w/out AC and I need to revise the accessory setup. Does anybody know the part numbers for the idler/tensioner required for that set up and belt? I don't know if those cars had a non a/c set up or if somebody has figured it out. Thanks.

You don not need to make any changes to the main accessory drive(Crank,water pump,power steering)to not run the AC stuff.I would be suprised if you can use the alternator in the stock location.On my 65 it would hit the steering box.I'm using an alternator relocation kit made by one the members here.It typically is used by "F" Body guys to run a turbo off the drivers side.Do a search in the Conversion area for "Alternator relocation" to see what I'm writing about.
