LT4 Water Pump replacement
It has gone fairly easy up to this point. I'm removing the 6 bolts at this time and the one that is causing the problem is the one behind the air pump pulley. Am I going to have to remove the air pump to get to it or am I missing something here?
TIA

Appreciate the help guys!

I ended up buying the PS pulley installer/puller from Autozone and it opens up the whole area and makes it easier to slip the pump out. On my particular car the pump wouldn't come out from the pulley even with the PS pump loose, but then mines a vert, maybe something is a bit different. The best tool I found to remove that bolt was a socket with the universal joint right onto the back of the socket. Dave
