Serpentine Belt

When the A.I.R pump is removed what belt should go on to replace the old one? Or will the old serp. belt fit still? Or do they make a dummy pulley to go in its place?

Re: Serpentine Belt

Why not just use the air pump as the dummy pulley? Or just keep the pump in service...performance can be had with the emissions equip installed.

Re: Serpentine Belt

Go to your local auto parts store and tell them you need a belt for an 88 or 89 camaro without smog. You will need to find an idler pulley that came on 2.8 cars to keep the tension on the belt but good luck finding one, I need one myself but have had no luck finding one for a few months.
