Default Bypass power steering???

I have heard that if u bypass the power steering by using another size belt it would help in horsepower. A friend told me what size to use but I forgot. Does anyone know what size to use to bypass power steering. I still have stock pulley.

Also I am installing a 3500 ss converter but I have 4.10 gears. has anyone had experience in gear swap out and what gears would be worth the most in 1/4 mile times. should I swap back to the 3.23 since i now have the converter? thanks. any info I would appreciate.

its not worth a couple horsepower, by the way your car will steer hard and you will ruin your steering rack, dont bother 'bypassing' the power steering or ac pully, its not worth it

umm i wouldnt advise bypassing the power stearing, unless this is just a track car...the gains would be minimal
