with truck accesories ..no
press the truck pulley onto the f bod pump
or space out the 97 vette wp pulley
accesories sit closer to the engine than the trucks
you will have to reuse your truck tensioner also
and drill and tap that 3rd bolthole

im lookin into doing the intake manifold conversion...i have to say that this thread is a might bit discouraging..i cant imagine how much it would cost to do the swap professionally installed. maybe illl just ebay the intake and let it sit here on the floor until i get more money to buy more of the parts or decide i can afford to have someone else do it or trust myself to. who knows.

all the stuff with the water pump you can disreguard
and the valve cover vent should already be on your TB
so no need for a fitting put in the intake
get the speartech bracket or make your own
cut the "truck" upper WP neck down and 90 it over
this swap should be fairly easy with a cable driven TB

i dont have the time, patience, or skill to do this swap on my own especially if necks need to be cut bent and re-welded so i would probably have to take it somewhere to have it done, i cant imagine how much it would cost if all i did was bring them the intake

anyways, i dont want to cause any trouble but IMO all that you need for a hobby is passion which i do have or i wouldnt be pouring all my $$$ into a piece of metal if i didnt love it. i know your circumstances with your transmission and i have extenuating circumstances and priorities which keep me from doing this on my own for now
now lets all be happy and agree on the fact that we all love your trucks.
