Hi everyone,
I started a 1969 Camaro build. The car has a Roadstershop IFS and IRS frame. I want to run a RHS LS7 with a Whipple 2.9 supercharger. Here is the problem...with the Whipple 2.9 I am limited to a stock LS7 accessory drive which is too wide for my '69 or the LSA drive but the alternator hangs too low as it will interfere with the steering. The front accessory drive of a LS9 will work very nicely measurement and looks wise. Has anyone done this configuration in the past ( Whipple 2.9 with a LS9 accessory drive ) as it will need some modification I would think? Other ideas would be welcomed as well. The car will be equipped with AC as well.
Thanks in advance!
