Default New LS1 Owner Needs Help...

Well there is somthing underneath my hood that is just plain singin'... I have replaced the tensioner pulley that is up top already and no luck.. I am thinking it is the A/C tensioner or A/C Idler.... that or the A/C Compressor itself

If it were the A/C compressor how can I find that out without having to pay some shop to look at it?

Also I just wanna ask this flat out... is there ANY way to get Long Tubes that are gonna be perfectly emissions legal? thanks - darren

The AC runs off of a separate belt. Just pull it off.

If I pull that belt off then I wont be able to tell if it was in fact one of those pulleys or the compressor itself they are on the same belt.
