LS 1 'short' waterpump

[Caprimaniac]

Hiya. Trying to help a friend with a boat, he's stuffing in a LS1 from, said, a 2002 Corvette.

Is there a water pump available that doesn't proteude as far forward as the stock one?
The belt can be moved closer to the block tooo...

If a pulley- set crank/ wp is available, it'd be great....

Thanks

As far as I know the Corvette accessory system is the shortest or closest to the block. I did a search for a short aftermarket system but I did not come up with anything. Back to the top for you.

Is it possible to press the w/p's, "pulley-snout-mount", back closer to the w/p housing and then come up with a pulley that won't rub??

Do the same thing at the crank by using a different, "FLAT", pulley and shim it with AN washers??

Just throwing out ideas and really trying to help.

Looks like the '04-up 'Vette pump is the one you want. You can't use a fan with this pump, not a problem with a boat though

Thanks.
And I was thinking in the same lane as you, pdq. And then came peejay wirh excellent info.
Will go ahead and pass the info, and hopefully this boat will brake some waves soon.
