LS3 Accessory drive on an LS1 Engine I've seen posts showing how to attach LS1 to LS3, but not the other way around.
Will a LS3 Accessory drive fit on my LS1 (01 WS6)? If so, which version?
Balancer...space out the LS1 balancer 3/8 of an inch with a washer and ARP bolt or will a LS3 fit proper (next question may affect this answer)?
I plan to keep the A/C, I'm assuming I would I need the LS3 A/C compressor to be aligned with the balancer?
Water pump issues?
Anything I'm not considering?
Thanks

I guess that's one of my questions...which. I read that the cts-v ls3 accessories drive will fit on a ls3 inside a fbody. More to consider with an ls1 though
Basically, I need to adjust the spacing of the fanbelt from the motor and my ls1 accessories are wearing thin...but ac is strong.

I get it...don't mix/match. I plan to buy a new kit. I'm just not sure which ls3 kit will fit in my fbody ls1 and if the ls3 balancer will work w my ls1 a/c unit. I'm also not sure if I'm missing something with this plan either.
thanks again
