setting a LS motor with C5 accessories into a stock Gen 1 Camaro frame. Power steering has interference. Anybody deal with this? Is a smaller pully available? What did you do to clear this?

Or is my only option to get LS1 bracketry and swap the alt. and PS around?

How much is it interfering Buddy? I had a customer of mine come up with a solution for his 65 vette. He found a pulley through Summit that only needed minor machining to fit onto the pump as needed and the pulley was a smaller diameter. he reported no issues with the pump working. That's not surprising though as it's spinning faster now.

I saw this on another board, Summit SUM-340203. 5" diameter, 0.664 ID vs the vette 0.67 ID.
