So finally got my accessory drive kit in and had a few hours over the last couple of days to whittle away at it. I went with the Holley Mid-Mount system. I liked the fact that it had no spacers and uses the C7 style cartridge water pump; no having to disassemble the whole front end of the motor if you need to change the water pump!
I went with the black version as I like the contrast it offers. With the premium kit, you get an ATI balancer along with all the other accessories. This is a really nice peace of hardware, the fit was perfect and aside from a few minor things like chasing the powder coating from the threads on the AC compressor, it all went together flawlessly.
Once I get my radiator back from being swapped over for LS power, I can wrap up the cooling system plumbing. Also got the Vintage Air components ordered and hope to get the fuel system wrapped up this weekend...I'm dying to hear this thing run!
