".....will I be able to use anything that I have, or am I shopping for a new short pump, new water pump pulley, new alternator bracket, and new crank pulley? Does the alternator stay high on the passenger side or will it move? ......."
I think I'm going to be the bearer or bad news Roger. Basically you will probably need everything. I've primary played with the stock short water pump stuff (or the cheapy chrome repop stuff) over the years, and that's still out there. The billet stuff will probably need to come from the same manufacturer for everything to line up.
As far as moving the alternator, you can probably leave it on the same side with the right aftermarket brackets/pulleys. The factory stuff will move it to the drivers side, either on the exhaust manifold or with the head mounted bracket used on 70's trucks and Corvettes.
.I've NEVER seen a car come from the factory that couldn't be improved.....
