Default GM Accessory drive in Nova

Has anybody tried the GMP accessory drives in a 68-72 Nova.
I am about to start the conversion from 350 to an LS3 using a connect and cruise package but need a complete front accessory drive.
The GM stuff pn 19155067 looks like the AC compressor may clear the sub frame.
The price of the GM kits are almost a third of the cost of the billet stuff and my car will be a driver not a show car.

Help me with some comments if you have tried the kits in a Nova.

The GMP drive is basically a C5/C6 arrangement. IT fits many cars well, but the main drawback is that you have to use the C5/C6 balancer and the fairly expensive Corvette alternator. The GMP kit might be a good option if you are starting with nothing.

If you have a truck or Camaro setup, you might want to look into the new Holley brackets:

As far as I can tell, it has a similar arrangement to the C5/C6 system, but it has spacers available to work with the Camaro or truck balancers, plus it will work with the less expensive truck alternators.

Thanks as always.
The C5 pulley is plastic and has a solid design while the C6 has a 4 spoke design and I believe it is metal.

2010-11 Camaro part numbers were very helpful. Thank you for posting.

Does this accessory drive have the same offset as Corvette/CTS? Or is it the same as the truck offset?

2010-2013 Camaro uses the truck offset.

I'm considering a supercharger which requires alignment with the Vette accessory drive. Anyone have a definitive list of parts I need to buy to modify the f-body accessory drive in my car to be a Vette LS3 drive? Anyone know how well the Vette upper-right alternator location works with the ABS pump lines & hood fitment?

Anyone run into issues with the corvette accessory drive with the low a/c unit not clearing the crossmember? I've got a 68 Cutlass and I've got a shop dropping in a crate 376/525 LS3, and they've run into a clearance issue with the compressor and the crossmember. I'm using Muscle Rods engine mounts and the GM Performance a/c drive kit (which GM said would work in my application). I called GM back and they had no options that they knew would work. Anyone know a fix?

You need to get a Sanden compressor and put it up by the passenger side head. Kwik Performance and others make the bracket. www.kwikperf.com

Kwik lists the fitment as follows:

"LS1 LS2 Sanden Air Conditioner Compressor Bracket
Allows mounting of a Sanden air conditioning compressor on an LS1, LS2, LS6, or LS7 engine out of a Corvette, Camaro, GTO, or truck."

It doesn't list their part for an LS3, so I'll have to call them and see. Thanks.

Kwik sells 3 different versions of the same style bracket (like all of the other manufacturers) . The Corvette, F-body and truck all have different spacing from the block. You have to order the correct one for your application. Have you looked at the Holley AC bracket? I have it along with my C6 corvette brackets. I like the Holley one because it looks like a factory piece unlike the Kwik one that looks like some cheap looking steel plates with spacers. I know others have had problems with getting the spacing right with the kwik stuff. Just another option!

I took a look at the Holly one and it does look like a nice factory-style drive. It makes the short list. I like to talk to the company before purchasing, just to be sure I know what else is needed for the install. Glad to hear it works for you too. That's good information. Thanks.

I like oemcats.com as you can put in a part number and it will search a bunch of OEM sellers and list them by the lowest price.
