I think the alternator will need a new bracket for sure, and also the
shorter pulley.  My '81 has a non-working AC unit and I can't believe how
much more difficult it makes working under the hood compared to my non-AC
'81 S.  Without AC, there is only one belt and the alternator bracket is
basically a bar with a slot cut into it.

However, I live in too sunny SoCal so I'd like to get my AC working in the
near future.
