I would stick with the stock double pulley on the crank. Then it's just a matter of finding the correct length belt for alternator. The power steering belt would remain the same.

will the alternator from a 307 work on a 350 as well? will the power steering belt work on the new motor also?

With an electric water pump you will need to mount your alternator low to make it work. What accessories are you running off the motor?

well I have an electric water pump and I'm getting an electric fan so I guess just the power steering and the alternator. I'm not really sure. This is the first time I'm doing all this stuff.this is my first project.

I ended up using a low driver side alternator mount and just flipped it to use it on the passenger side. I'm running an electric fuel pump so I had the room. With a mechanical fuel pump I don't believe it would work. I'm not sure what groove the power steering rides on in your car. Does everything ride on a single belt or does the steering have a separate belt? You may be better off just removing the electric pump and installing a normal water pump. Especially if this is going to be a daily driver type vehicle.

Here's a pic of mine down low on the passenger side.
