2 Questions

hey guys.
88 302 5.0 where can I purchase a smog pump delete pully I did some serching but it was all to pull the pump out and horsepower?

My second question is I baught a new vacum hose my old one was cracked...same lenght but I think it was actully like a ruber fuel line maby?
Well my question is the hole seems to be a bit smaller in the new hose then in the stock one. Does this matter
Thanks

As far as the hose- as long as you can fit it on the nipples it will be fine.

If memory serves me correctly, when I deleted the smog pump from my 5.0L truck I found a belt listing at the parts store for "without air pump" and used that. I know for certain that I didn't replace the pump with an idler.

Edit: I did a quick search. You'll find some information here:

what are you going to do about the holes in the back of the heads once you remove the smog pump? you have the plugs for these 2 spots?

It will cause the motor to run lean and stumble under load.

thanks Conanski that might be all that's wrong with my current engine. it runs very lean stumbles, doesn't burn any oil but it blows black stuff out the tail pipe and uses too much gas. but i still going to put in a refreshed block.

Ah- yes. Add one more to the list of motors that have been "improved" by the removal of smog equipment.........
