Would the LS1 waterpump line up right with the rest of the stock LQ9 equipment or no?

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

Will 97 vette fuel rails work on 03 up trucks? If so what would be the hp limit on them. Will they flow fuel up to 800 hp?

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

quik some of your posts are quite aggrivating. i do have the patience to try but the thing is im about to leave for college and i dont have another vehicle to drive while this one sit in the driveway for a week or 2 while im trying to fab stuff up or put stuff back together. if you wanna talk about being in a hobby and stuff then what about your complete lack of desire to upgrade to the 80e in favor of demodding if in the situation...

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.
