What belts runs the power steering pump?

This is with a Sanden type conversion for the AC compressor

The inner set of pulleys run the alternator and water pump, the outer runs the AC compressor
What runs the power steering pump?
If one belt goes over the compressor, drive pulley and PS pump, there isn't enough overlap on the drive pulley

Water pump drives the PS pump. Some cars, don’t know which, use the crank pulley but I think those are later models.

Thanks Chris,
That was our guess, but wanted to be sure
Problem is we took the car apart about 5 years ago and didn't take enough photos

The Blue Books have photos that sometimes help, sometimes not!

We have the blue books, I guess I forgot to look at that!
I looked through all the parts diagrams but they didn't help

On my 1973 the belt comes off the water pump direct to the PS pulley. the WP pulley has two belt grooves.

Hi Pickman,

Thanks for that!
Do you know the dimensions of the 3 v-belts, off the top of you head? I am also changing over to a Sanden AC pump and Layne's bracket. Following your drawing,

1. crank - AC
2. water pump - power steering pump
3. crank - water pump - alternator

Thx!
Bill
