Default What A/C and Smog pump deletes should I go with?


I just decided that I want to go ahead and take off my A/C equipment and the smog stuff is already disconnected, its just spinning the pump for no reason. I do want to keep my power steering though, so what A/C delete and Smog pump delete should I go with? Am I going to have to buy a new belt or does it come with one.

And my reasoning for deleting the A/C is because I already have another daily vehicle and the condensor is trash as it is, and the system doesnt work anyway, so I dont know if anything else needs replaced too, so I'd just rather trash it. Thanks.

Im thinking i should just take the smog pump off and get a shorter belt, what would the right belt be for this application? (A/C delete using kit, and bypassing the smog pump...) I know plenty of you here are doing the exact same thing!

just dump the smog, and use the motorsport ac delete kit.

it will make it like a factory ac delete car, and no idler pullies.

Did you use the a/c elim bracket and just take off the smog pump or did you use a idle pulley for the smog pump?

I did not delete my A/C and I just removed all the smog stuff. The A/C delete you speak of will place your pulley in the same location as the A/C pulley is now. I did not use a smog delete idler....waste of $$$.
