its fine, any input is much needed. I'm looking for as much info as possible. I would think that without the pulley the you would get a little bit more power but not having it run down to the waterpump the belt is running long distances, that's what I'm worried about.

But nothing beats a clean looking engine bay, and a nice serpentine system with an electric water pump and electric fan really looks makes a difference IMO. Just a thought. Good luck!

My engine/engine bay looks like someone emptied a port-o-john on it... im just to lazy to clean it up, all in due time... I do agree a clean engine bay looks absolutely fantastic. I just wish it didnt cost money. that would be nice.
