katech timing chain c5r
baffled f-body oil pan/pickup
ls7 flywheel/clutch/PP

Part number Description

1993, and yes, keeping VVT. That's why gotta use the L99 stuff to clear both the intake manifold and the timing cover.

That's what the Cobra 8.8 is for! =D

But yah, the one question I still haven't found an answer for is what alternator bracket to use. I'm thinking that even the stock one might work, but I'd like to relocate the alternator to the old power steering pump position or at least a higher position. Guess I'll just have to order stuff and find out if it all lines up or not, haha.

12610789 is the l99 alternator bracket, Thats what i would use if it will clear everything. l99 uses the same beltline as the trucks. I have found a few that use the truck beltline besides the l99 bracket. Does your l92 have vvt and afm or just vvt?

I used the F-Body accessories in my 240SX. I just spaced them out by 3/4". I did use the truck A/C bracket and compressor though. I have a thread here on how I did it just search my username. I might also suggest the Mast Motorsports cam for the L92....530hp.
