that 924 is clean...get a new coolant tank though!

if anyone has an LS engine out of the car, could you give me a measurement of the engine from crank pulley to rear block face? width and height would be appreciated too.

Ian Riley directed me to Mike Gokey out of Ft Lauderdale.
Ian asked me; "Have you ever considered a V8 conversion?"

We haven't installed the f-body crank pulley yet (C5 pulley is still on there and it's quite a bit different "offset"). We can probably estimate what it will be with the f-body pulley if you want us to.

Alan,

If you need an f-body pulley let me know I think I have a spare or two.

Truck crank pulley to factory fans/radiator is 1.125". This is with 1/2" between rear driver's side head and firewall. So the F-body pulley would leave 1.875" between it's edge and fans in their stock location. Hope this helps....

I know 100% that the Truck Crank pulley is set out 0.75" further than the F-body Crank pulley. But I have not had a Corvette Pulley or C5 alternator bracket to confirm the Dimension in the pic. I have seen another chart of these 3 diff. crank pulleys that are conflicting for the Corvette offset......reason why I haven't made Power Steering/Alternator accessory brackets for the Corvette Crank pulley offset....

Hood scoop. The intake would have not allowed the hood to close otherwise. I bought that hood scoop off eBay. The car is currently under the knife. I'll post pics later but you can check out the project here:
