Ac belt question.
I'm about to remove all a/c components from my 03 civic ex but i noticed that the belt on the ac compressor is shared by atleast the alternator also if not more things. so my question is what would i have to do to remove that ac compressor and still have a belt power the alternator and whatever else is utilizing that belt once the compressor is removed?

I believe this is what you would need:
Gates K060338 (34 3/8” or 872MM) Belt or similar
I'm contemplating on doing the same this summer. Good luck.

Nothing. The power steering pump is driven off the "smaller wheel" on the crank pulley. The A/C shares a belt with the alternator (off the "bigger wheel"). If you remove the A/C, you would just need to get a smaller belt for the alternator and the crank pulley.
