Default 1982 5.0 AC and Power Steering Delete

Hey Everyone,


Brand new here, and hoping for someone who has gone through the same thing I have.


I have a '82 5.0 that the power steering and A/C have been deleted. Basically I need the brackets and pulleys to replace the missing components.


I have purchased a couple bullit pieces from Late Model Restoration, but I'm missing the actual brackets. Can anyone point me in the right direction to what I need exactly. Another big piece is the belt replacement to go with it, so if anyone knows what length I would need, would be much appreciated!


I have included a few pictures of the setup and the items I have purchased.

A quick google search says you need a 91" belt for your car with ac. You should be able to find the brackets at a wrecker or on the ebay

Perhaps this helps, here's a "before" picture of my 82 GT engine. I also deleted the factory air when I put headers on it. Saved all the parts. I preferred having the T-tops off to AC.
Looks like you bought the same replacement pulley that I had.

Ford made some weak/primitive tensioners in 82 didnt they??

one of those may be a smog pump delete...Either way, all you need is the ac pulley on that side of the engine and a shorter belt. No need to wrap around two pulleys on the same side there
