1958 - 1964 B-Body LS Accessory Drives

Accessory drives for an LS in a 1958-1964 Impala, Bel Air or Biscayne. The BRP B-Body guide says a 1998-2002 F-Body alternator and power steering setup works with its kit, but A/C needs the BRP high mount compressor. This page lists that High Mount A/C drive plus BRP alternator and power steering drives, all in three balancer lengths.

  • Guide: BRP high mount A/C needed
  • Alternator and steering drives, with or without pump
  • Short, Medium or Long balancer

For the conversion kit, crossmember and headers, visit the 1958-1964 B-Body LS page. Accessory notes come from the 1958-1964 B-Body LS install guide.
