that's one way to do it. I used F-body accessories as I need the space on the other side

Re: Any LT1 guys ever try this?

I had it. You can make it work with 92 f-body v6 lines with a custom made adaptor. I could tell you how to make the adaptor but I would have to look that stuff up. Worked great for the year I had it.

I didn't like having the alternator and a/c compressor up top though so I moved them both down low. The alternator bracket can be made by finding the image of the LT1 alternator bracket on the net, then resize the image until its actual size, then print out the image, then cut the image out of steel.

I was just happy to find this so i dont have to worry about getting corvette stuff which is impossible to find, and i dont have to put ac on right away.
I dont think i would like them both high either, but im willing to deal with it.
