Default Ls1 Intake swap and keep your truck accessories

Very easy.. since the fbody water pump and the truck water pump have the same casing (except for the inlet pipe) and shaft, just take the pulley off your truck water pump and press it on the fbody water pump..belts line up perfectly, i havent set the intake on this yet, but i think it should work..

like i said in my first post i havent set the intake on it yet, but the diameter of the f-body and truck pullies are the same, and im using the f-body housing, so really there shouldnt be any issues.

umm, your idler pulley won't work in the stock location, you will also have to cut the bracket its held onto, you will either need to make a new bracket under the alternator or get the speartech one. good luck either way.
