Chevy II/LSA space between accessory drive & core support

[BC Cash]

1966...Need help with a rough measurement.. I know it varies depending motor mounts and positioning but I need to get an idea of how much space will I have to work with between accessory drive and core support..

[joeko23]

Are you looking for a minimum clearance between accessory drive and core support? Or how long an LSA is with accessory drive?

[BC Cash]

Yes minimum clearance between accessory drive and core support. Thanks BC

I think at least an inch is adequate between electric fans and furthest part of accessory drive. If your looking for how wide a radiator with electric fans is, I can measure mine. I have the entropy radiator with their fans

[BC Cash]

That would be great..Any info is appreciated

My entropy radiator with fans is about 6” wide from the core support.

I have a 63 Chevy II and I suggest you do not put the engine forward at all. I'm 1" forward with Dirty Dingo DD's and GTO/F-body accessories. I also run a Entropy radiator and it's tight. Had I know then what I know now I would've done whatever necessary to put it as far back as possible even if I had to make the bell housing area of the floor/firewall removable for bell housing bolt removal. Your air intake elbow will be tight and up against the radiator at 1" forward.

There is a good build on Steve's Nova. 66 with LSA you should be able to find the answers on there.
