Great thread!!! I'm planning on stepping up to an LS6 intake on an L33 5.3 dumped into a 96 S10 SS.
wasn't there still an issue for clearance using the dbw tb on the 07 style pumps? it seems like that only worked with cable tb.

I did this swap and i will post the PN for the main belt in the morning, I used a o'rileys belt and it was a 9xx120, just too lazy to go look in the garage.
My setup is a f-body waterpump, summit brand UD pulley with stock sized alt pulley, Katech f-body idle tensioner and thats it...i will also get pics of the setup tmrw...to be honest i need to prob go one size down for a more snug fit

Yea V, I'd really like to see your setup and know the belt length when you get a chance, and would you happen to know where to get a fuel rail for this swap? I can't find a 97-98 vette rail like Lance used

the 97/98 vette fuel rail is very hard to come by. if you do find one it will be expensive. i've seen some use an adapter of some sort and use the vette filter/regulator to make it work.

I just went over to a aftermarket rail...looks better that way anyways. I will say with cost of intake, the DBW 78-90mm conversion harness, new WP, brackets from Greg (redheartbeat), Katech tensioner pulley, and 90mm TB i have about $1,000 into the swap...but i also went to a LS2 intake instead of a LS6
I'll get pics and the belt number later on today and post them tomorrow

So what brand fuel rail did you go with V? any reccomendations on which ones are better?
