looks good, I think I'm going to repaint mine mid summer or when I get the super comps, do as best I can with the engine in the car, then later down the road when I do a swap I'll paint it the right way.

to ditch A/C no... deleting emissions tho I myself would recommend getting a tune. PCM4Less is your friend... not sure if texas speed does LT1 tunes but if so thats another option

i have a 1LE a/c delete pulley i would sell if you want it let me know EGR AIR and A/C are all relatively easy to remove hardest part is getting the lies off of the back of the a/c compressor and thats not even that bad just gotta get stuff outta the way ie alternator things you need: egr block off plates, plugs for air pipes on headers, and a tune so MIL isnt on all the time, 1le a/c delete pulley

Do you really need an A/C pulley?
I have EGR plates comming out my ass at work But my headers are race style.... 0 emmisions. When the time comes I'll be doing the work at my job but I not to sure if I can have other people in there. If we do it gentle couldn't I sell the left over parts?

You prolly could... and also a sawzall can make things easier if you dot care about preserving two of the a/c lines (the ones that go to the back of the compressor)
Pulley... well, on my car I was just able to getashorterone and fight with it for a while till it went on... not sure if you can do that on LT1's too or not

one word: sawzall, right kasey 
and if you have luck like me be prepared to be fighting with an exhaust manifold leak from the egr for months  idk about on your car but it took me a total of maybe a half hour to get everything from the egr off and that included cracking nasty ass rusted bolts  if you have two bolts holding on your egr tubes your in luck if you have one, be prepared to fight with getting it sealed. im actually thinking about getting mine welded on but then comes the problem of what if i need to put the egr back in...  actually i was just thinking i could have the plate welded on and if i need to put the egr back on i can put it there just for looks but it wont be functional

Your forgetting I wont have crap ass manifolds for long
Id like to make it as clean as possible!
I'll probably go with the pulley since I already have a new belt for the under/over drive pulleys on AlT & Crank, no need to disturb it!

They sell AC delete pulleys at autozone, etc. Motormite makes them. It's the air pump pulley you need to get from GM.

Oops, sorry, forgot that one. Thinking 3rd gen. Might be wrong on the motormite pulley too then.
Edit: Motormite/Dorman does make one for 95 Z28
Part No. 34209
Motormite AC BYPASS PULLEY
$36.96
According to parts america

OK... I remembered what I did... loosened a connection, surrounded it with a rag tho so it wouldnt leak out and would get soaked up,... then kept loosening it more and more
