Air pump

My dad has a 1980 E-350 with a 300/6. A few of my friends and I are comendeering the vehicle for a road trip. We are trying to get A/C and extra power, so we are trying to put a 2nd and separate alternator on the accessories. The air pump that's on there, can it be taken off and still have a properly running motor?

sure. the only reasons you really need an AIR pump for is to keep the CAT working right, and to lower emissions. An E-350 won't have a cat, so I'd go for it.
