ok, we all know the tensioner pulley is on the same bracket as the ac........i was wondering the same thing......"how do i remove the bracket and still keep the belt tensioner pulley".........i just read a few posts of people saying use gm part # 10055890 ac delete pulley................i did some searching............this is what i found.....http://www.gmpartsdirect.com/results.cfm ........is this just a plain old pulley? does it come with the tensioner? or is the tensioner eliminated? and how does it install on motor?

Have some patience, man.

The pulley is just a pulley that replaces the compressor. You leave the tensioner and smog pump on. 10055890 is the correct number.

Yeah, the bracket itself stays. You are just replacing the AC compressor with a pulley.

i think 50 views is patience enuff,......thankyou for your replys........see i thought the bracket went as well......is there a way to do that? that bracket looks like it weighs a ton........do the compressor and related components weigh enuff to make it worth the trouble to remove ? will just a pulley and not an ac compressor free up few horses or is it very minimal?
