Default Looking for A/C compressor delete pulley

Does any one make a compressor delete pulley? It would save me the time to remove the rear part of the compressor.

I have been studying the belt set up to see if there is any way to run the belt with out going near the a/c pulley. I have also noticed on the Camaro LT1 cars, they have the separate belt set up for the a/c so you can just slide it off.

Camaro mounts the generator where the Corvette has the compressor. Water pump spins opposite direction. Would require a Camaro water manifold and water pump. and lengthen the generator wiring. Inlet neck may not clear in a Corvette chassis. Also the crank pulley may not line up with the Camaro pieces.

Didn't realize the Camaro set up was that much different.

We have a 16 Camaro and I looked at it based on your thoughts. Thanks. It was a good idea I didn't think of.

Yeah, I was going to say you must have already researched the Camaro set up, you know way to much about it. I just happened to see the set up on a detailed picture, and of course knew nothing about it. If you come up with a working scenario, I really would like to know.

The LS motor set up on the C6,s you can slide the separate a/c belt off.
