A/C Eliminator

[84 5.0]

Anyone familiar with the a/c eliminators out there? I have found three different kinds and did't know if anyone has used one or has opinions one which is better. The three that I was looking at were the Ford Racing one that relocates the power steering pump to the compressor spot, one that relocates the idler pulley above the power steering pump, and one that is a pulley and bracket that bolts directley into the front compressor mounting holes. Thanks.

I use the Ford one. It's very simple, and came stock on non-AC Mustangs. Remember, it requires the Mustang mushroom-shaped aluminum bracket that the ps pump actually bolts into.

Or you can buy an aluminum March-style bracket that is everything you need, for $50.

Thanks, I have been leaning towards the one from Ford because of the simplicity. I never really thought about a factory "non-a/c" car (pretty stupid of me), there's not much of a market for them in Florida. I don't think I have seen one here that was made after the 70's. I'm pulling the motor this weekend to change the heads and clean up some things and figured it would be a good time to get rid of the compressor. Thanks again.

For anyone else looking, I used this:

And it's the parts that come on non-AC Mustang 5.0's.

This one lets you use a factory a/c power streering pump and bracket so you wont need to locate that hard to find non a/c power steering bracket.
