ps fluid is leaking out of the fill spout, i think the belt might be routed wrong, I used a 67" belt and i dont have smog or ac. whats the right way to route the belt with this setup?

you're gonna have to use an A/C eliminator kit that relocates the P/S to the A/C location for proper belt routing, and then you want the purple setup.

yeah i know its short but it fits beautifly, i took out the tensioner so the engine bay looks cleaner. I start around the crank, go around the water pump from the right, then get the alternator and the PS pump. I have ud pulleys so you would need a bigger belt for stock. It works now, I dont know what happened but it doesnt do it now.
