I don't have the diagram, but I just did this. I used a 37" belt (36" was too short), and you just don't use the compressor. It's routed around the idler pulley in the same way as before.

Edit: Here is a diagram

This reminds me, I have to take my bypass off and put a new bearing/pulley/clutch on it since it's hot now. I replaced mine last year and went through a flooded on-ramp when we had those hurricanes. Must've washed the grease out of the bearing. Now I have to find a replacement which are hard to find.
