I took my smog pump off today and put on the shorter belt. When i went to start the car it made some crazy screeching sound so i shut it down. I followed this diagram Belt routing94-95 SMOGPUMP ELIMINATION pictures from friends & fun photos on webshots but it says for a GT. Is there a different way to route it for a Cobra? There were also two black metal lines that were hitting the belt that I had to move out of the way. I dont know if thats the issue, just wanted to give all the details. Thanks for the help.

I don't know for sure but I wouldn't think so.
When I shout belted mine I made a diagram of the old belt routing and belt direction. Then installed the short belt and made sure everyhing was still rotating the same way.

Yes it is different because the 2 lines you are hitting are the oil cooler lines. (Which are only on Cobras.)
What I did was delete the oil cooler, install a fl1a filter (same as what GT uses) and ran the same belt route a GT would.

Ok thanks. I think that is what was causing the sound. I tried to move them as far as i could but i think the belt is still rubbing the one line.
