Need measurement for accessories please? Between fenders and frame rails please - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I need a couple measurements please. Truck is apart at the painters.

For those with an LS swap- what is the distance between the frame rails at the front edge of the accessories? And the same on the fenders please around 3-3.5" above the midpoint on the crank (in below pic- where the PS reservoir sits).

Trying to determine if the gen 5 accessory drive from Holley will fit. See below. Any help appreciated!

Thanks guys

In another thread he asks about a 48 3100.

This gives the outside measurements in some spots in the area of question. http://s173.photobucket.com/user/mr4...tml?sort=4&o=3

You would have to subtract the width of the frame rails.

I have several images of the frame drawings in that album.

Old photo that I had in my album but you can get real close on the between the rails measurement with it with a bit of math. I'm going to be lazy and just post the link to the photobucket photo that you will have to open. http://s173.photobucket.com/user/mr4...l?sort=3&o=103
