A/c and smog pump delete

i have seen ways to switch my serpentine route so that is bypasses the smog pump but what if i wanna bypass the A/c too. Also how much horse power you think will be gained from deleting both?

If you want to bypass the A/C and gain the whopping .5 hp you might get out of it, then you need an A/C delete idler pulley. It's GM PN#10055890 and costs about $35. If your compressor is shot and you're a cheapskate, then you can gut the compressor so that it's basically a freewheeling pulley, but then again, when the clutch isn't engaged, that's what it's doing anyway.
