There is always been a problem finding a belt when running no A/C on a Fox, unless you get a 93 Cobra water pump pulley and get a bigger power steering pulley and good luck finding a Cobra water pump pulley, so I decided to just add a pulley, what you think?

I had a customer's car with the same issue. Installed the Ford Racing A/C delete, and cut and rewelded the mounting ear of the aluminum power steering pump bracket to move the pulley up. Worked like a charm and no idler pulley necessary.

Now after the S/C it should take off better while filling up at the gas station.

What do you do when you remove AC and ps pump and have no smog pump but running the blower set up and alternator is running at the bottom ? That's the dilemma I'm running into

It will be alot easier to route if you change to a forward rotation water pump in that case.Or an electric one.

Yea was thinking of going electric don't want to do a different moving pump
