I'm sure this is on the forum somewhere but i cannot find it

I have a 6.0 iron block motor out of an 2003 2500 chevy truck that i am converting to LS intake. Need to know what i have to do to relocate alternator to clear intake. I think i need a different water pump too? Using Vintage ac. compressor mounted on lower passenger side

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks I have seen this before it says nothing about what brackets are available or how to modify the ones on the 6.0 now. I could have some fabed up but i don't think it is necessary. anyone else with suggestions would be appreciated

 

Yep, lets stick this here in the conversions section.

 

i believe there are some running F-body accessory mounts and shimming them out to meet the water pump. I am making my own alternator mount its all the way down at the bottom- power steering on the passenger side! THere are several custom mounts for this online for sale, none i think look that great, but they are out there.

 

I have some pics of what I did, first with a stock DBC TB then with a FAST on an LS3 intake with truck fead.

Like this i used a dirty dingo idler relocation bracket , then cut off boss for idler. Also used a 2010 camaro wp

 

thanks these are helpful. It appears i may need some f body aecss. to get this done. I have seen some truck conversions with the ps pump high on driver side & alt below. any body have suggestions for that set up?

 

That would be a Corvette/Camaro set up,to do that you have to replace everything including the balancer.What vehicle are you putting the 6.0 into?

 

Kwik performance and Holley both make accessory kits that will work with the existing truck belt spacing (water pump and crank pulley).

Hard to believe a search didn't turn up those options for you.
