super red91 said:I have that bracket, what I did was had a custom bushing machined that allowed me to put the stock 8 rib a/c pulley on the a/c delete bracket. Its for sale if your interested, just pm me.
Yes it will work. SCI's pulley is designed to work with the stock AC delete pulley bracket.ARV90SC said:well i wont be using the stock A/c pulley, ill be using the pulley from SCI, will it still work?
mannysc said:what is the purpose of deleting ac ?
save 10 lbs?
hp none to save a ac unit draws no hp when not in use.
so you remove it and condensor ac lines save 20 lbs big deal on a 4,000 car,
seems like a lot of work for 20 lbs. and cost$$$
is this on a race car?
the pump does not turn the clutch is disengaged so it only turns the pully which is as much drag as the pully it takes to delete itMagpoweredSC said:It still has to constantly turn the rotor pump inside the a/c compressor which eats up horse power even when not on. The advantages i saw with it were better cooling by removing the a/c condenser, the weight off the front end, and by removing the whole a/c kit the car is a helluva lot easier to work on.
The cost is small, like 30-40 bucks for a belt, so in my opinion the ends justify the means.

I can see your methode working better than a idler pully .as for w eight reduction Ill take a mean dump before the race and eat light foods that give me gas "makes me lighter" as gas floats.Randy N Connie said:I agree with your thoughts Manny.But the difference between the Wt.

For the best HP gain.And the cheapest,and to make to motor more excesible
