LS7 Corvette accessory drive
so we are putting together a try 5 Chevy and we are using an LS7. This engine has been converted to wet sump. We're not sure what to do about accessory Drive. So it has a standard oil pump in it not the Dual gear dry sump pump. So the front cover oil pan oil pump and balancer has been changed to the wet some configuration. Does that mean we can get an accessory drive for a standard LS or does it still have to be LS7 because it has a longer snout? Oh boy not sure if this LS7 is really worth it LOL. I mean the customers already got rid of the dry sump. But it is what it is any help would be fantastic

you are right on point. I talked to the machine shop that converted it to wet sump and yes they just use a spacer to take up the space caused by a thinner pump and thinner front cover so that all of your accessories still work in the same place. Thanks for your input guys
