Thanks Jon. Thats the piece I was looking for.

Thanks to moon also. I'm going to price remanufactured pumps and see which way is the least expensive.

You can also just gut your old one, unless it's the bearings that have gone bad. If I look hard enough, I might be able to find the spare one I bought for that purpose, but never used.

This guy (http://members.shaw.ca/korvette4u/index.htm) also makes AIR eliminator kits and they're well-regarded on "that other Corvette site."

I got mine from Breathless Performance. http://www.breathlessperformance.com/products/101.asp I noticed the price has increased by about $20 since I bought mine (can't remember when that was.) :confused Doesn't Conyers have a visual inspection?

No need for a shorter belt. The altenator rotates out toward the wheel. I had to splice in a pice of 10 guage 'cos I didn't like the way the wires were hanging. With the way these altenators don't like heat I figure moving it away helps.

Jimmers started a post in this forum titled Air Pump. http://www.corvetteactioncenter.com/forums/showthread.php?t=72920 I posted a couple of pics there of my arrangement.

The people who do our inspections are the ones who couldn't land a job at McDonalds. Just finding my emergency brake release is like a MENSA test for them.
I would rather keep the pump but it's the bearings that are going bad. The pulley wobbles but theres no noise.

I just looked at the part from MidAmerica ... it looks identical to the part I got ... and $40 cheaper.
