PS pump elimination 2003 cobra motor

Hello all,

My situation: 1969 Mustang convertible, 2000 R code IRS installed, Rod and Custon IFS installed with power steering, 2003 Cobra motor and T56 installed. Close quarter problem: trying to get all things connected and fit properly in the quadrant of the PS pump, alternator, remote adapter, lower water outlet, hoses to the steering rack and pump.
One solution ; would be to swap out PS for a manual rack--but what to do with the PS pump?
Anyone seen a delete kit for the PS pump that like for the AC?
Or anyone seen if removing the pump and rerouting a shorter belt will work?

THANKS for the space to ask these questions... John

Ive seen people gut the pumps before, so all you have left is a casing with a pulley on it, if you do that you've got yourself an idler...
