Default LS1 front serpentine system on L92(LS3)

My question is if the hole front belt system of an LS1 would fit the L92 (LS3).
Runing it with the carb intake and its going in a 78 malibu.

Yes, it will as long as your intake will not interfere. Most carb intakes I've seen won't interfere.

It will fit but the water pump will not clear the VVT timing cover. But since you said carb intake I assume your going to delete the VVT so your good to go.

Direct bolt on. As already stated, you need to do something with the VVT though.

The VVT needs to be delete and install a LS2/LS3 timing set and timing cover. The VVT timing cover bulges out and will hit the LS1 water pump.
