I've been looking for awhile too. I have one of the "piggyback" underdrive crank pullies, so I'm going to try to mount my alt low on the driver's side and run it off a seperate short belt...then putting an idler pulley on my stock accesory bracket.

None of these links seem to answer the OP's original question, how to KEEP A/C and PS while relocating the alternator...

That said, I do remember a few years ago on CamaroZ28.com someone had made a bracket that mounts the alternator on the driver's side next to the crank pulley and used a pulley in the stock alt location, like a 1LE pulley, thus keeping both AC and PS, but it's not made anymore. Maybe someone else can do this?
