On the 90 and before model you could do that, but on the 91 and 92, they changed it so that you must have a pulley in the AC position to route the belt properly. I know because I just removed the compressor from Max’s car (1990) and put it on mine, 1991. Max’s car has the diagram for the belt routing and it shows an optional routing for a non AC car, using a shorter belt. The AC compressor on his car is on the drivers side and the belt tensioner is separate. On my car the compressor is on the passenger side and the belt tensioner is part of the AC compressor bracket. The diagram shows no option for a shorter belt. You could leave out the Smog pump delete pulley, but not the AC compressor pulley. BTW, the compressores themselves are compatible, Max has cold air now.
