Found this one, it is for grand prix's but they have the same engine, so it might be possible to use it on our cars as well. Not positive though

http://intense-racing.com/ also has the same thing and has a note saying it works on fbody cars as well, some will need a spacer between bracket.

Re: a/c eliminator

I removed my a/c, switched my idler pulley to a grooved one, and am running the belt for the non a/c cars. Works just fine.

Re: a/c eliminator

by idler you mean the a/c idler pulley? if so i might check into doing that instead. that could be why there isn't an eliminator for our cars... hahaha, thanks for that info dawizman.

Re: a/c eliminator

do what i did, remove your a/c and just get a smaller belt.

that is what i plan on doing... but the idler pulley, did you put a grooved one in it's place? i can get a grooved one, and a smaller belt.

Re: a/c eliminator

i used the stock idler pulley

[firechicken3800]

Re: a/c eliminator

so whats the path you took for your belt, since you didn't replace your idler pulley?

Re: a/c eliminator

well i also have an electric water pump, so i am missing the belt over that too,

Re: a/c eliminator

well that makes sense, i've already looked at a set up if i put on an electric water pump... but until then... if that even happens lol.
