not sure what you mean....
it runs off the back of the main crank pulley on a smaller belt...its not part of the main serpentine belt pathway...its completely separate.

undo belt, remove AC compressor, remove lines...end of story.
nothing else needed

perhaps you should actually look at your engine and see the differences before you start trying to do mods....
3rd gen and 4th gen are very different engines.

look pal, I may be new to a ls engine, but I didn't know if you could just pull the belt and not have an issue... maybe that will cause the rest of the driven items to spin a little faster, and cause an overcharging issue? idk, I didn't go to school to be a mechanic...
