Default Breathless L98 Air pump eliminator source?

I need a Breathless air-pump eliminator for an L98 w/ sepentine belt conversion. It seems like there were places that you can buy it cheaper than direct from Breathless, but I can't find any today. Anybody know another source for their stuff?

If you just need to eliminate the AIR pump you can use a shorter belt and this routing, worked just fine on my Formula:

I'll look into that, but I think the tensioner is lower on the Vette setup and the belt would rub the waterpump pulley if you don't have an eliminator.
