LS accessory drives for 1955-1957 Chevy swaps. The tri five guide says most OEM accessory drives can be used, but a low mounted LS A/C compressor hits the frame, so A/C has to sit on top of the engine. BRP lists High Mount A/C drives with the compressor and alternator and power steering drives, each for Short, Medium and Long balancers.
Read the 1955-1957 Chevy LS install guide for pan and steering clearance. Mounts, the crossmember and headers are on the 1955-1957 Chevy LS page.
Each drive name ends in its balancer length. Measure or look up the balancer on your engine, then pick the matching drive.
