Default LS3 lower water-pump intake--any others that fit???

I've been looking here and elsewhere and haven't found a lower LS3 water-pump inlet that points toward 6:00 or is "clockable." I've seen the latter for other engines but not for the LS3... what say ye, please??? And, thanks, in advance.

Thanks, Mike; S&P's Website is the only one I've ever tried to load that Kasperky flags as a "dangerous site" and won't open. Who knows. Anyway, I've been searching for LS3 "thermostat housings" (all in the right search terms, I suppose) and am finding some, e.g., a straight billet, and perhaps a "clockable" one, but I haven't heard from the vendor yet. Thanks, again!!!

Just for clarity, you are searching for the thermostat housing, is that correct? If it is, I'm thinking the title of your thread could be misleading to others which leads to low responses. JMO

Yes, Mike, as I noted in my previous post just above. But, in actuality it is both. I entitled this what I thought was accurate at the time. Oh well, live and learn. The one outfit I contacted didn't yet respond. I can always call S & P if necessary, I found another mention of them having the earlier LS ones in an engine-swap book, maybe they have the later ones, as well. Thanks, again.

Street and Performance 479-394-5711

Pretty easy to find in about 5 minutes with Google.

They have them for 98-03, 04-08, and 09-up . They also have them in straight, 45*, and 90* that are 360* swivel. Some of them even come in a 15* version.

Hi. I ran across the same problem doing an LS3 swap in a '29 Model A coupe. The one I found is a real nice unit from Hitman Hotrods in Ontario, Canada. You can get different degree elbows and it is clockable. Cost is around $100 Canadian. They keep them in stock. Mike
