Well, you can't just delete the PS pump. There needs to be a pulley there or the tensioner needs to be reversed.

You can either reverse the tensioner to pull up, or run a standard rotation WP like this

Well, that's not a stock water pump. You also don't need a smog elim pulley. Route the belt like in that picture, but have it run the opposite way around the water pump because your stock WP is a reverse rotation. Search on modifying the tensioner to pull the belt up. Imagine the tensioner going up in the picture and the belt coming around the WP pulley the other way and you'll see how it needs to be routed
