How to get 3rd gen accessories on an LT1???

I searched but couldn't find it.. I know its here... but i dunno where...

I want to use my 3rd Gen AC and Alt, And PS on my LT1..

Though more concerned with AC at the moment..
I have AC Comp moved out of the way.. took off bracket.. removed nasty smog pump.. took bracket to LT1 and lone behold.. it don't fit..
As could be expected.. What's the trick?
thanks..

do a search under my name...look in the topic "LT1 swap guide" the first part....scroll down about 3/4 of the way and youll read everything you need to know...

the bracket will bolt up to an LT1 motor no problem.. its the water pump thats in the way....


also how are you going to fire this motor?....are you gonna use the opti?, the 730 ecm or carbed?....

Wouldn't it be easier to just use the LT1 accesories?
