Default Serpentine Belt Shortening???

I have just eliminated the whole exhaust on my 1989 5.0 In order to run straight pipes from the headers and exit under the doors. I have an Underdrive pulley set on the alternator, crank, and water pump. I am looking to drop the AIR pump completely, and I was just wondering if anyone knew the correct belt size just running the alt, power steering, water pump, crank and idler. I don't know the difference on the uderdrives. They are the blue ones off Mustangs Unlimited. I was just wondering if anyone was running the same thing ontheir car. Any help is appreciated. And there's no A/C by the way.

that's not the most accurate though, because of the tensioner. I was wondering if anyone calculated it out.
