alt. bracket

when i made the bracket for the ps pump i wasn't thinking about the alt. and wound up making it so the belt comes off the front of the pulley now i am trying to make a bracket for the alt. but if i use the back of the pulley its too close to the block, so i was wandering if i could use the front pulley and it would just have a a longer belt going around the ps pump and the alt?

they are the same size, but what i was thinking is could I use one belt for the ps pump and the alt. it would goe around the crank pulley then the ps pump, then the water pump, and then the alt. if i got it tight enouf so it wont slip.

not a good idea, too many things on one V belt won't be able to drive them and not slip most likely
