Please Note
This system was designed to fit on engines equipped with a "long" water pump. Vortech includes a 3-groove accessory drive crank pulley (for use with "long" style water pumps only). If this kit is to be installed on an engine equipped with a "short" water pump, a custom accessory drive crank pulley and spacer will be required.
For engines equipped with power steering, a remote reservoir (GM "type 2") style pump will be required as well as an optional Vortech power steering pump bracket and pulley assembly. Depending on the vehicle, power steering lines may require fabrication.
