1LE AC Delete pulley...
I have two part numbers for the AC delete pulley:
1) 10115875 which is what is listed at www.1le.net for a 3rd gen.
2) 10055890
Both part numbers come up as valid and as a "Water Pumop Pulley" at www.gmpartsdirect.com
However, I have pics of each and there are some differences. See for yourself below:


From what I can gather, it looks like either one will work. Does anyone have any more info. on this?

That is very strange Bret, the pulley diameters are obviously differant , and the brackets themselves are differant, but why? Seems as though GM would make up tooling for the bracket and be done with it, but to make another is odd. The picture on the bottom (your post) is the same as I just bought. Never seen the one above before.

Actually, looking closer, I wonder if it is possible that the above pulley was weak, and they had to revise the design...? Look close at each of them, the lower looks to be much stronger. Think it is even an issue?

could be... if I remember correctly the smog pulley was smaller than the a/c pulley.... but I just ripped that off and bypassed it, so I wouldn't know for sure.

The top one is an LT1 A/C Delete Pulley, and it is listed as Smog or Waterpump Pulley for some reason.
Here is a picture of mine with the part number showing on it,

Same setup I am using in my 94....I'm working on pulling the a/c compresser out with the engine in the car. The front 3 bolts were cake to remove. the bottom back bolt was as easy. But I have tried everything to get on the top back bolt..any suggestions ? do I need to remove any acc. Alt....or anything that would make access easier? Any help would be great......
