FD pulley on FC

I need to convert my FC alternator to a serpentine type pulley and was curious if the FD pulley would fit onto the FC alternator. The situation is i have a ford 5.0 motor in my car, and have adapted the bracketry to fit the RX7 alternator..making wiring much much easier for me. The problem of course is that all of the 5.0 pulleys are serpentine pulleys and the FC alternator pulley is a v-belt type. So i was curious if the serpentine pulley from the FD alternator would work?

the FD pulley won't fit on an FC alt, but an FD alt will directly replace the FC alt with a little rewiring. Its a nice upgrade as well.

No, the center bore of the pulley is larger on the FD pulley.
