Welcome to the BB Scott. Speaking from experience i've had both the vintage air set up and the Billet Specialties set up there is no comparison on quality and the thoughts that go into there kits. Something that most people never notice is the fact that all of the Pulley's on the Billet Specialties set up all match. Not something everyone will notice but it's little thing like this that make this a better kit in my opinion.
Scott will i be seeing you at the local Friday Night Cruise Nights on Downers? I wouldn't mind meeting you in person since we appear to be neighbors. |
umm.... ls1s already have serpentine belts, and I would bet dollars to doughnuts this weighs a crapload more too.
what some people will buy..... |
umm, but cars also come with steering wheels, stereos, wheels, tires, transmissions, seats, radiators, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc.... yet people still buy those parts in the aftermarket.

I have installed a few Ls1's and packaging becomes a pretty big issue with stock bracket systems. On an olds I did I had to hog out the crossmember and box it all in to keep the stock AC bracket, because I could not mount the engine any higher. The problem with most after market bracket syetems is how long it makes the engine and the room for the engine becomes and issue.
Billet specialties has a short decent packaged system. It is pricey. I believe it is the shortest but it is the most expensive. But an ls2 stock bracket kit is even shorter than the billet specialties. If you have a front steer car like a later 70-81 camaro I think the power steering pump might be in the way. It all comes down to fit. On my latest truck I used a stock camaro mount for the AC and made my own power steering pump mount and will make the alternator high on the passenger side. I hate to mount it high but it is either that or don't hook up the steering. |
