Complete car accessory drive on truck engine Is there anything inhibiting the use of the car accessory drive on a truck engine?
I have a harmonic balancer, intake manifold, and TB from a LS3 that I plan on putting on a truck (LY6) engine. If I'm going to have to spend the money to get the car water pump and relocate the alternator, what's the reason to not just switch to the entire accessory drive?
The parts I still need are probably going to be around $5-600, which shouldn't be too far off from a used accessory drive.

On the earlier iron block truck motors you would have to drill/tap one of the low alternator mount bracket holes. Otherwise, it should be a bolt on swap over.
