Medium Duty LS Alternator and Power Steering Drive for Engine Swaps
Proper pulley alignment defines performance and steering feel when installing an LS engine in A-Body, X-Body Nova, F-body or GTO chassis. The Alternator and Power Steering Drive Medium uses precision bracket geometry to place both pulleys for a medium length balancer at factory center distances with no shims required. Compatible with LS series engines on 1964-1967 A-Body, 1962-1967 X-Body Nova, F-body models, GTO models, 1970-1972 Monte Carlo, 1982-2004 S-10 2WD and 1955-1957 Chevrolet applications, it ships with alternator bracket and power steering mount assemblies, a complete fastening hardware kit and detailed installation manual. Manufactured in USA and designed to integrate with MuscleRods engine mount kits, it delivers dependable accessory operation under constant vibration.
Precision Integration and Fitment
The Alternator and Power Steering Drive - Medium is precision engineered to integrate seamlessly with LS series engines in F-body models and GTO models using a medium balancer length. By locking into the existing MuscleRods mounts, it preserves original engine placement and drivetrain angles, preventing misalignment that can lead to premature belt wear or accessory vibration. This exacting fitment ensures belt tracking remains centered under all operating conditions, reducing noise and extending the lifespan of both the drive and driven components.
Robust Construction for Enduring Reliability
Each component of this drive system is machined from high-grade billet alloy and stamped steel to deliver high-performance results under sustained loads. Critical surfaces are treated to resist corrosion and surface fatigue, allowing the unit to withstand the high heat and torque spikes common in late model V8 applications. From the pulley bore to the tensioner pivot, tolerances are held to tight limits, ensuring consistent belt tension and minimal deflection even after thousands of miles of operation.
Optimized Efficiency and Easy Setup
By routing the alternator and power steering pump in a unified layout, this drive enhances accessory efficiency, lowering parasitic loss and improving steering response and electrical output. The included comprehensive installation kit provides all necessary brackets, pulleys, mounting fasteners and detailed instructions. As a result, professional and home installers alike can complete the swap with minimal downtime and without the need for custom fabrication tools or aftermarket spacers. Proudly manufactured in the USA, this kit delivers both peace of mind and peak performance on the road or track.
Built in the USA with precise bracket geometry and a complete fastening hardware kit, this drive ensures reliable pulley alignment and smooth accessory integration for your LS engine installation.
