I am receiving my 2006 5.3 vortec at the end of this month, I've been doing a TON of searching on here and found about 90% of the info I needed to know. I do have one question about the choice of accessory drives, I know I will have to go with F-body accessories but I found an accessory drive kit that GM sells. The part number for this kit is #19155066
I cannot post pics of the accessory drive right now because i'm at work but if you go to crateenginedepot.com and type that part number in, it will show you a picture. It says it's a CTS-V design but it looks just like the f-body setup, does anyone know if this will work?
Yeah I was thinking about buying that kit, seems like by the time you buy th ps pump, a/c compressor, and alternator, it adds up to the same kit you can buy from gm that comes with all of these. Idk i'll do some research.
It worked on the 91 camaro I'm doing the swap in. The hood doesn't go straight across the fenders, it is bowed slightly. I was able to shut the hood even before notching it but the alternator rubbed.
