how do I route the belt when bypassing smog pump.Yes I have searched but didnt find a diagram on how its route just the belt size I need.My problem is if I just bypass the pump the ribbed side of the belt will have to go under the tensioner or do I bypass it??

It should go straight from the crank pulley over the tensioner to the alternator.

Any idea what the length would be bypassing it and running underdrives?

The same reason a turbo is better than a supercharger. DRAG on the engine.
