    If you burn, you are all set. I just decided that if I were going to learn a code, might as well be MS since I have 5 cars made by 3 different manufacturers, lol.

    Still finishing up the bracket to support the Vortech unit. Waiting patiently to do so, as I need to start burning a PROM soon. Mega-Squirt is a given, but that's later on though...

    I agree with the slippage issue, but I need to get this thing tuned right away. A shorter belt is definitely an option in the near future though, that's for sure....

    Just wanted to elaborate for you guys, as after re-reading my first post, I see how confusing it might have been to picture everything;

    Stock 3.1. A/C was tossed, and was running a non A/C serpentine belt for quite awhile. Decided to lose the Smog Pump, but wanted to use a pulley, as opposed to running a shorter belt. The V8 delete pulley that I modifed is where the Smog Pump used to be, not the A/C...

    Well, now you let the cat out of the bag, now you are going to have to share...

I already fabbed the delete pulley using the V8 one, I just didn't want to ruin it, and was hoping that an aftermarket source offered them before I altered it....
