TTA Performance - Air Pump Delete Pontiac 301

We get asked a lot on how to remove the air pump on the 1980-81 Pontiac 301 and Pontiac 265. The air pump was only installed those last two years of this engine.
If removing the air pump tube, you will need Dorman 555-101 freeze plugs to plug off the port in the cylinder head.

Nicest and most knowledgeable guy out there
We are luck to have this knowledge

I had a hard time putting the freeze plugs on, and after watching your video I realized that I installed the passenger side freeze plug on the plate instead of the head, besides that it worked great and I got the parts through you. Great video.

It fine to install the freeze plug in the bracket. If you aren't going to use the bracket for anything else, just machine it down.

I Had That Air Injection Setup On My Stolen 1973 350 Firebird.

Always great info!

I'm going to do this but don't know what to use for an alternator bracket. I don't want the bulky one attached to the air pump.

What is the most horsepower and torque that you’ve personally ever pulled out of one of these 301 turbo cars? Have you ever seen anyone pull out more power than you were able to produce, I highly doubt it as you are the only person building these that I’ve seen in the last couple of years worth or searching. Thanks

Another good video! You had mentioned you installed a roller cam in a customers car. What modifications did you make to the valley pan so the lifter cross bar did not make contact? Thanks!

I have a question for you you may know and you may not. I am
Looking for the dimensions of the letter’s PONTIAC on my windshield to my 1981 pace car number 0019 according to robin it’s the 60th one built. Thx

Can we please see an N/A 301 with ‘67 670 heads. I’d like to see which intake manifold would be the best fit after fabrication.

What is the purpose of deleting the air pump?

[@6-Iron]

Designed by politicians. You can thank Jimmy Carter for this nonsense.

Do You Think JOE BIDEN And GAVIN NEWSOM Wouldve Done The Same Thing?
