I have an 89-93 serp belt drive, & i want to get rid of the extra weight & cancel out my AC compressor since i dont have it hooked up(although it works) what is the prefered eliminator bracket style I should go with?? & where to find it??
their are several ways that you can get rid of the ac compressor. their is a bracket that you can bolt into where the compressor was that has a pulley on it. it looks like you dont have a power steering pump. you can completely remove the ac brackets and then get creative. ive seen it where someone puts a belt that just goes around the alternator and crank pulley. the belt will just touch some of the water pump pulley. i believe they loosen the water pump pulley bolts then stretch a belt on, then tighten the water pump pulley bolts to apply more tension to the belt. you can find a tensioner that goes the opposite direction and rout the belt around that to take up the tension around the water pump. march makes a nice bracket and pulley to replace all the ac pulley and brackets.
I'm thinking of putting a bracket with pulley to match the custom one that was made where the power steering pump once was. But as far as the tensioner pulley goes I already have one next to the altenator. I'm not sure if I can incorporate a second one lol
http://www.summitracing.com/parts/mch-1460-09/overview/# so would this set up just be a bracket that doesnt use a pulley? i wanna try and use the same size belt. so I need one that matches up with the existing AC pulley is possible...
I used a Ford Racing A/C delete kit which also pulled the power steering pump up where the A/C used to be. Had to use a different sized belt.
I found this picture and it seems this is the same setup i, running, and looks like that pulley bolts up directly to my AC bracket i have already. opinions? I believe this is the pulley in the picture. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/asp-028200
