If you are trying to run the LS3 style intake you will need a car style water pump. The outlet on the truck water pump exits right where the throttle body needs to be for the car intake. What kind of vehicle is this going in?

I use the L76 style intake (which should be virtually identical to the LS3 except the MAP sensor fitting) and it fits just fine with the stock LY6 water pump and with the truck 87mm throttlebody, not sure about the car throttlebody though.
