AC/Smog removal
i wanted to take out the ac and smog pump but keep my heater since it can be a nice day adn still be a lil chilly out, i dont need an ac thats why i have windows, but what would i have to do to get rid of all that crap? car is a 92 305 tbi
Re: AC/Smog removal
same thing i plan to do they make what are called "delete pulley" 's for the smog pump and the AC compressor.... only one person makes the smog pump delete pulley and that goes for $65 or around there.... as for the AC delete pulley there are varying ones on Ebay ranging in price from $20 to $60.....

Re: AC/Smog removal
There is a write up in the tech articles on removing the SMOG - then all you need is an A/C pulley delete.

No problem - I did that to mine - you'll have to maybe try a few different belt lengths, as I got the one in the tech article and it wasn't right length. I kept my A/C, but that would save some expense anyways.

Re: AC/Smog removal
yea i knwo all about the delete pulleys and stuff, but can i just bypass the pulley all together and use a shorter belt? also that big ugly black box that is on the passenger side firewall that has the heater core in it right? has anybody ever tried to relocate it?

Re: AC/Smog removal
No - the heater core is inside the car, pass side, in the dash - the two radiator hoses that go into the firewall, connect to the heater core. The black box can be removed, many have done it - you'll have to patch in some sheet metal where it is a part of the firewall.
