Re: LT1 GenV swap
Mail man dropped off the pallet of goods. Once I finish the exhaust on my BME 525 LS swap and box in the battery area I'll be starting this swap. So no updates till then. Going to order some motor mount adapters and the dirty dingo water pump adapters to use the gen4 water pumps.

Is GM using the vacuum pump on the L83 just for vacuum assisted accessories or are they scavenging the crankcase too? thanks

It looks like ICT Billet has a pretty good answer to the power steering question and at a much more reasonable cost compared to the others. The only issue I see is that the pump appears to be put on the wrong side of the engine requiring more hoses across the front end. http://www.ictbillet.com/lt1-l83-alt...uck-gen-v.html

Re: LT1 GenV swap
I thought I'd let you guys know that Holley will soon be releasing an LT FEAD system as well and it is based on the use of an LS water pump and uses the existing Holley LS alternator/PS pump components/brackets also. It was previewed at LS Fest last weekend and I can post a photo of it next week if you guys want to get a look at it.

Can't find anything linking a lt1 to a ls fead setup but it looks like it would or could clear a vacuum pump.
