my smog pump is making all sorts of noise, and i dont have emissions where im at, is there a way of just running without it, besides buying a delete bracket?

Remove the pump and run a shorter belt. Then remove the lines all the way back to the rear of the heads. Then stand back and see how much more room you have.

You can run the shorter belt as 90mustanggt said. Then just take all the emissions stuff off. A lot of people cut the pipe that leads to the head but I left mine on and capped it. You can also cap the part of your exhaust midpipe where the smog hose attached. I cleans up the engine bay. I kept all of my stuff. Now I have emissions and have to put it back on.

Instead of cutting or capping off the thermactor tubes in the back of your heads get a couple of these.

aight guys i just put my hedders a few weeks ago and didnt put that one smog tube that goes to the midpipe. so if i was to get a shorter belt and not connect it to the smog pulley there will be no more smell and reason to put the tube that goes to the midpipe or will the smell still be there?
