PS resevoir change from SB to BB - pulley issue

Doing a SB to BB swap - 73 Charger.

Put BB brackets on engine to test fit SB pulley alignment. (BB not in car yet)

Tried lining up pulleys/belts but SB PS pulley does not line up (alt and water pump do on back balancer slot) .  Looks like the pulley needs to be further out from the reservoir/bracket.

Is there a different BB pulley we need to find?

What resolution has anybody found for this swap?

I think all you need are the BB brackets....I got small block pump on the Daytona....it's got a 7" pulley

Didn't clarify well enough...

Is there a pulley that sits further out on the shaft from the bracket/reservoir that lines up the belt with the 2nd space on the balancer?
