Cleaning out the engine bay and redoing the belts. Planning to put the air pump back on and interested if anyone else is running a wp, alt pulley with the air pump.
I know hp gain is negligible and helps with cavitation. Looking to possibly keep the anodized blue look going.

 

If you mainly want the look there are pullies that are OEM or near-OEM size out there. Gains in power and gains in cooling/cavitation is minimal.

You can run with an air pump no problem, just may be a bit more work to find the right size belt.

Found the right size belt to run with the greddy pulleys. Mulling it over if there was any downsides to it.

 

Not really if you keep the air pump. With no air pump you don't get enough belt wrap on the water pump pulley which can make it slip.

i think just upside, you get the proper belt wrap on the water pump pulley
