Question Belt For Power Steering and AC Delete

I'm in the middle of a build and I have a belt for the ac delete. I've decided to do a power steering delete as well. I'm pretty sure they both run on the same belt so where do I get it? None of the vendors here have it on their site

I would advise against deleting the power steering. If its an all out drag car and you will never ever drive it on the street even for a minute then go a head and delete the power steering. The car just wants to go straight with out power steering.

However this car is not a civic where you will hardly feel a difference. I have deleted it once before and it killed the car's drive ability. Try this, turn off the car and turn the steering wheel. Notice how hard it felt? Well imagine that exact stiffness while driving, only that the steering wheel loves to straighten back out on its own! The car just wants to go straight and making simple turns is a struggle. Even with speed on the high way doing a simple lane change is not fun. And yes I do work out and am not weak.

Sorry if this was not really help full. I am just trying to help , in case you were not aware of the Evo and how it feels without power steering.

Thanks for your input! I've been asking Emery and his crew what they think. As for the answer to my question, I called AMS today and they confirmed that the power steering delete kit they sell is meant to run without AC so if you're doing both then you don't need to buy the "AC Delete" belt.
