hello mick,
i have done the a/c delete just recently.
i am running pollution pump delete pulley,3 piece underdrive pulley kit,cut down air con bracket completely and just the left the mounts/bracket to hold the idler pulley in place.
then i reversed the serpentine belt thru the idler puller and replaced as others kindly mentioned here with a 1988 gm Berreta 6 rib pulley,# gm 10044867.
i the measured up the length serp belt i need which is 66 " long and brought a good year gator back multi rib belt, # gtr-4060660 from summit racing.
and thats pretty well it mate.

I did an AC delete on my previous C4(87) with a nice light pulley off eBay, cleaned up the engine bay amazingly. Will probably do the 88 eventually, but I just found the right belt for my current underdrive setup and won't be messing around with that stuff until winter.

Here it is using the "1LE" delete bracket. I cannot find a part number but it is available via auction with a search for "1LE Delete". It is actually a camaro firebird option from 88-92. I have not seen it listed for Corvettes specifically.
I use a stock length belt and have AIR delete as well.

Thanks to al who have responded it is appreciatted
I like using the bracket idea for doing this. It would be nice keeping the belt size that I currently have, seeing as I already have a few of them, but I am willling to look at all options (never know).
Slalom4me I have sent frmrfast a pm hopefully he still has, or offers this bracket. That looks like a nice peice.
Raindelay's is also on the right track of what I would like, but I didn't know there were some changes from the earlier years. I also remember (GM ?) one for the LT stuff but wasn't sure if I could get it to work on the 90.
Sorry guys for not mentioning the year being a 90.....flame suit is on
