A/C removal?

Hey all, I'm wanting to disconnect my A/C unit as I never use it. Instead of using a A/C compressor bypass pulley for the serpentine belt, I would prefer to just go with a shorter non-A/C serpentine belt. Can't seem to find such a belt. Does anyone know if such a belt exists for our 7.3 idi's? Gates?

as these trucks were made without ac, you should be able to find a belt.

w/o AC applications used an idler in place of the compressor. Belt is exactly the same length either way.
