^ I originally wondered the same thing, so I called around. The jackshaft from the gto kit would be way too long to just mount to a corvette kit

I'm sure any machine shop can make it assuming u would reuse the pulls and shaft bearings/supports, then all the would need to do take a rod that's the same diameter, make it the length u want and then machine the ends to accept the pulleys

There were two companies that were making this f body kit, and I don't think either one is in business anymore. Here is a link about one of them. https://ls1tech.com/forums/racers-lo...del-speed.html Bob

There are plenty GTOs running the 2300. One of the sponsors already answered you on the GTO forums. If you make this work I won't be selling my WS6.
