Default 5.3 LS1 swap

Hey guys, i've finally got my 5.3, so im trying to make it into an ls1, but im stumped on how everyone runs their serpentine belts. I've heard of people swapping the ls1 setup over, but is it something i can do just by using the 5.3 setup? Thanks yall!

all of the accessories will swap over, but the 5.3 is missing one of the holes used by some of the setups (like the alt bracket on the fbody setups).
