A/C delete question

For A/C delete do you just use a smaller belt or do you need to replace the pulley with a dummy pulley and use the same sized belt.

Thanks

Just use a shorter belt. I got mine at my local Napa store. They had the correct size info in their database.

Why stop there...

Remove the A/C, nice. Be sure to remove all the lines/condenser/etc. at least all the way to the firewall. I capped of fittings at firewall and sealed up all lines and components removed before boxing them up. Have you considered removing the power steering. I did and I would never go back. It is no big deal at all (especially w/ 18" front wheels) and delivers tremendous feedback to you through the steering wheel. Turbos will spool sooner too. Make sure to make a bypass line so the rack can take and give oil to each respective hydraulic circuit incase you ever want to hook it back up.

Also, Banzai know his stuff, cant go wrong w/his advice (obviously).
