I have just about had it with this bracket I bought! I might as well just buy a underdrive pullley kit from March Perf. I want the Alt, Crank, and Water pump kit. Will not having a smog pump make my 5.0 run bad or change the idle?? I currently dont have the EGR hooked up since i think a line from one of the heater core hoses goes to it to keep it cool which I dont have because I no longer have any heat or air in my car. This is a quarter mile only car but I dont want it to have a bad idle. So how bout it. Is eliminating the smog pump a bad idea?? If I disconnect the P.S. pump and drain the rack, will the steering rack lock up?? If not is it dangerous to operate the rack without fluid?? Any help would much appreciated!!!!!!!!!
