Default AC Compressor belt removal!

HAY GUYS!!

I dunno if I'm posting this in the right section (or should this belong in External engine since it's an accessory) is there anything stopping me from temporarily removing the AC compressor serpentine belt on my LS1? The clutch squeals like a pig when it is "off", and with the cold weather, I can't keep it on in order to stay quiet. I looked quick and didn't see that belt running anything else (unless I missed it) search didn't work for me this morning. I have found AC delete pulleys, but is that even necessary with this application, or just for the LT1's? Thanks in advance!!!

OMG I cut the wrong belt! SHIIATTT!!!









J/k. Cut the proper belt last night. Should suffice for now, but definetly I want to get a good compressor in there before the warmer (and more humid) weather comes around.
