Re: LT1 GenV swap
Looks like I should have my pan soon. Being a shop we ordered
My pan through a distributor. Sounds like they have had the pan for some time and it took us calling then to get the order rolling again.... hope to see the pan sometime next week... |

Re: LT1 GenV swap
Glad to hear. Got around to the alternator bracket.. going to give this a try. Should work as there are other companies that offer setups like this
 And keeps the vacuum pump... just need to reinstall it as i was testing out another bracket idea. Need to remake the power steering brackets to incorporate an idler instead of a tensioner... Clint

Re: LT1 GenV swap
Got my pan in last week too. Clearance is perfect for my Porterbuilt suspension. Just waiting on Holley's LT accessory drive now. Looks like a couple more months.

Re: LT1 GenV swap
Random bag of spacers i found on the side of the street
 Surprisingly they fit the passenger side alternator mount lile a champ!  Used up all the random length bolts i could round up for mock up. Now just need to print the final template and cut it out on some 3/8 plate... Ill re-do the power steering plates later to incorporate an idler pulley for more crank belt wrap.. maybe un necesssry but why not.. Still need to sort out the motor mounts.. 3/8 plate to adapt gen5 to sbc... leaves a 1/4 inch or so between the booster and valve cover.. so tight, i cannot install the beauty cover With this setup, I can keep the vacuum pump and not have to worry about vacuum although i have 2 l83 manifolds and going to try something with one amd post the results of the test Clint

Re: LT1 GenV swap
Last tweak and now im ready to cut them out. Needed to rotate the tensioner a few degrees now it can put the proper tension on the belt.
