Carbed LT1 Swap, can I bolt up LO3 serpentine accessories?

Trying to just get my car running asap. 305 has a blown head gasket. I can get a LT1 for a reasonable cost. Can I just swap it in for the time being with a carb manifold and use the standard 3rd gen serpentine accessories for now, other than the water pump?

No, you will have to run the f-body accessories (or vette). Also, swapping it with a carb manifold is actually more expensive than putting the LT1 in with the FI and everything that goes with it due to the fact that the LT1 carb manifold is totally different than a regular SBC.
