Default a/c delete

need pictures of completed a/c delete, seems like there is several ways to do it, do you still use your tensioner, if so does it still go in the same place?????

the tensioner never needs to come off for any of the delete kits

if your talking about the frpp kit that relocates the ac, it can only be done 1 way

other wise there are kits that delte the ac but have an idler pulley. thats just so you use the same belt

which one are u doing ???

I have pictures of when i deleted my a/c, it just moves the P/S pump up to the location where the A/C compressor was. I will upload the pictures later tonight for you. It was really easy but i had to get two different size belts before i got one to fit right.

I have had some problems but it's not because of the speed density. The car has a lot of miles on it and i've been going thorugh it replaceing sensors fixing vac leaks, etc. From what i hear with a good tune on it speed density can be superior. It's not as easy to tune as Mass air which is why most people switch over. It all depends on how big of a cam and how good your tuner is.

Im planning to build up a 408 carbbed beastthis yearin a 88 notch i got for free so this lil gt is gona get sold soon.

hope these pics help with installing the a/c delete.
