It's not an Ls2 accessory drive as it depends on what vehicle it's in. An Ls2 in a vette will have a different accessory drive than an Ls2 in a GTO...or trailblazer.


That being said, if you use GTO or f body accessories, I believe the alternator will hit the frame or steering box. The vette or truck accessories work the best.

Regardless of which ones you use, you will have clearance issues with the air compressor hitting the passengers side frame rail.

Personally, I would use vette accessories over truck because the vette's are tucked closer to the engine, freeing up space between that and the radiator.

^^ what he said. I have the vette accessory drive (gmpp 19155067) in my car and couldn't be happier at how easy the swap was. There is a non-AC version of this drive system that GM is selling now. If you use aftermarket AC, with the compressor high on the passenger side, you could get away without any frame mods.

The pump should work fine with the gear box. Might have to run custom lines, or I'm sure with as many ls swapped s10's, someone makes a conversion line.

Also, I believe the trailblazer SS and 5.3 models use the standard truck accessory drive.
