LSA blower with corvette accessories? I've been searching around and can't find an answer.
I'm wondering if there's room to run the ctsv supercharger with corvette accessorie drive.
I recently added a lsa blower to my collection of parts to swap into my g body el Camino and it doesn't look like the alternator on a ctsv will fit in past my frame rails that's why I am leaning towards the vette accessories which I do believe fit.
So if anyone has some insight or knowledge on this it's appreciated!
Thanks!

I am going to say no it wont work but I could be wrong. It looks like the blower snout will hit the alternator bracket. Some grinding might take care of it. You will also have to change the water pump over the the LSA style. I will try to mock one up if I get the chance.

That'd be great! I was just basing this assumption of it working on the fact that the ctsv and vette use the same depth balancer.
Funny I just read your whole bug build thread before I saw your comment on this thread......man that car is going to be sick!! Awesome looking work!

I have not had time to mock this up yet but I did hold the bracket up next to it. It looks pretty promising. The alternator sits farther away then I thought. You will still need the CTS-V water pump though.
Thanks for the good words on the Bug. It has been a work in progress!

The vette ps and alt bracket will work with the lsa blower. There is an article I have on how to get it done. I'll post it for you when I find it. I may or may not be doing the same thing in a gbody cousin of yours...haha

I've got an LSA and used the corvette alt/ps bracket so I could put it in a 1st gen camaro. It fits fine.
