I just installed a Meziere race pump and BMR bracket. With my underdrive pulley I used a 32.5 " belt. Not cheap but nice setup.

The BMR alt bracket, and maybe think about a small radiator with a remote water pump mounted to it, and run some lines to and from the motor?

Save even more weight with the small radiator, and I'd be willing to bet the cost being that you can use a few different pump setup's wouldn't be a ton more $.
