Default Frisbee?

I have to ask... What is a frisbee and why does everyone say to get rid of it? Do I have one? :confused:

The frisbee is a black metall disk that is bolted on the water pump pulley that could be found on 88 to 91 vettes with the later air condition compressor style L98`s the key that the factory made it was to take of any shakes or vibrations when the air condition compressor kicks on or off !! they say if you take it off it will add some 10hp to your vette !! I took it off and the compressor is still ok and you could actually fell the engine rev quicker !! If yours is an 86 you don`t have it !!
