Default Try new things and need some information

I am just about ready to get the engine back in the car but before I do that I have to get some of the accesories powder coated and figure out what to do about belt driven or eletric driven accesories. I would like to run an eletric water pump and fan to help get more HP at the rear wheels but I don't know if this going to work for street use. I heard that the electric water pump system is meant for the race track and not street and because of this the car may overheat. I need to know if this is true. Also is there anyone out there that runs this that knows anything about the belt setup and how you would configure it. I also pulled out the AC unit and was wondering if it is possible to run the belt system with out it or do I have to get the AC eliminator pulley??? I can't seem to find any mustangs out there that didn't come with AC so I don't know if there is a belt to run or if there is a pulley in it's place from the factory. You wouldn't think this would be so damn hard to find but I have not found it. I may just be overlooking something to. Anything that you can tell me would be greatly appreciated.
