V1 with aa corvette brackets? Hi I was wondering if I switch over my accessories over to vett accessories will the a&a supercharger brackets work? How hard would it be to make the accessories fit? I can build all the intercooler pipping just need the brackets. Anyone have some info on this? Thanks
but for real keep me in mind if you do

The A&A bracket bolts to the water pump (2 bolts where the tensioner go) and to the head on the passenger side.
You "may" need the LS2 C6 version of the bracket. The reason being the water pump. All V1's 04-07 and the LS2 C6 corvette share the same water pump. A&A has told me that the C6 water pump requires the C6 version of the A&A bracket. Also if you have an 06-07 V with the 90mm TB, it will not clear the C5 bracket. The TB motor will hit unless you flip the TB.
The alternator is not relocated to the passenger side. It stays on the driver side. On a C5/C6 it is on top, and the V is on the bottom. This should not cause a problem though since the blower is on the pass side. The passenger side of the motor is the same, so I wouldn't see why it would not bolt up with the LS2 C6 bracket. I don't know how well the blower will clear though. Might have to move a few things around. There is more clearance on a corvette. The accessories on the driver side should have no effect on mounting.
I have experience with the A&A setups and they are very well built. No experience trying to put one on a V, but done a couple C5/C6. Josh over at A&A is a really good guy to deal with for questions or parts.
I'd really like to see this done. Might be a better option than the Maggie on these cars for people who can fabricate the piping and etc.

This looks like you would have much better air filtration options than the GTO bracket, and it looks like he may have reused the stock fans, or at least used pullers which gives you a lot better intercooler clearance behind the bumper!
Must be a custom radiator though given how low it is, and the piping.
