The LS motor is here, and the Chassisworks front clip is here for my '68 Camaro. Now I need to get an accessory drive that will have provisions for: PS pump with remote reservoir, alternator, AC compressor and a Dry-Sump pump. Not wanting to spend a fortune on "bling" I just want a functional "trouble-free" setup that works.
I am looking at factory setups, specifically the 'vette C6 and Caddy CTS drives as these will both work with the dry-sump setup I want to use while still staying tight to the motor. While I have the basic dimensions and layout of both these setups I am missing one crucial dimension: how far back does the AC compressor go? This will determine if it will hit the motor mount and appears to be the major area of interference.
So to anyone here running an LS in a Chassisworks subframed first Gen - what are you running for accessory drives?
