need to change the belt to one that is for power steering and no aircon, (not as long)
and change the drives side engine mount to a non aircon one.

then just remove the extra rad and compressor under the glovebox and pump, and pipework , saves a canny lot of weight.

ive got a drivers side mount that removes the aircon pump and the power steering, if you want to go that route, that bit of the engine looks much clearer without either of them connected
