My smog pump recently started acting up recenty. It squeels really bad you can hear it over the supercharger at idel and while driving. It only dones it once it warms up but I want to run a shorter belt now and bypass the smog pump but Im not sure on what size belt to run?? I wanted to get the SP delete kit but Im not sure if it will work w/ the Paxton bracket since the smog pump now has its own set up on the bracket so I figured Id just get a shorter belt and by pass the pump for now.

just measure it. Take a string, route it how you want, measure the string and there you have ur size. Take off .5" for tensioner.

get another pump from the junk yard or from someone removing it for weight from here - and GUT IT! It'll spin like a free pulley and be the exact same size and work in the mount. But ... the delete pulley will weigh a lot less.

That is USUALLY my reply to this question. By the time you try searching a junkyard and buying it (and they like to rip you off), you could just order that one and have it delivered to your door!
