Jethro's fan belts

[domeier]

Has anyone tried the new rope fan belts from Jethro Bodine Inc.?

Okay, here's the thing: I'm finally getting around to finishing my Old Air kit, but I'm not too confident about the fan belt routing. I put rope "belts" on it for a look see, and I'm concerned about the power steering pump. Is that enough belt on the pulley to run the pump?

I don't have the the dual water pump pulley yet, pick it up tomorrow.

Also:

1) If anyone has pics of their Old Air long water pump setup, I'd like to see 'em.

2) What did you do about the top radiator hose? My existing hose goes right through the alternator.

3) Does the compressor have to be oriented so that the hose fittings are pointing up, or does it matter? I have them angled facing about 7 o'clock right now.
