bypass smog pump

Hello Mighty Mustang people
I have a 98 GT I would like to bypass the smog pump. Does any one know the right belt size to do this? Thank you Don Shaffer

Your "smog" pump is in your passenger fender well. Its actually called the secondary air pump. Deleting it will not do you a damn thing.

Our cars arent like the 5.0s

Nope. Aside from not gaining any power, it will no longer be street legal because you removed part of the pollution control.

show me a link to this smog delete... You probably looking at 5.0 parts man. You car has a 4.6. The smog pump has NOTHING to do with the belt or accessories. Its powered by 12volts
