| I know 96Brougham had a thread on this for his LT1, but does anyone know if pulling the stuff like the airpump and the related emissions stuff is possible in the TBI motor? I want to do that to help clean up the engine a bit and make it one less thing to do when I do the rebuild.
Thanks | |

| removed my air pump years ago.
i was even lucky enough to get all the air pipes out of the pass. side manifold.
used brass plugs from the hardware store to plug the holes.
no problems as of yet.
you need a shorter belt and it gets routed a little differently.
i can get you the belt size and some pics of the belt routing when your ready to do it. | |

Also, what sort of plugs should I use? could be longer, its been awhile. i know its different length than stock. if you can get the air pipes out.....be very careful here because they could break. and i dont mean the tubes. the flare nuts could be seized in the manifold. i think i used 1/4" threaded pipe plugs. | |

with plugs already installed. Totally. I was planning on making the rebuild my winter project, so that works fine. | |
