Description
LS Swap Alternator and Power Steering Drive with Short Pump
When adapting an LS engine to a tight engine bay, the Alternator and Power Steering Drive w/Pump - Short delivers a compact accessory drive that keeps critical systems organized and accessible. With an integrated power steering pump and reservoir, it removes the need for separate units and streamlines fluid routing without welding. Installation hardware is included to align the alternator and pump precisely for reliable operation. Designed to work across a range of GM models, this drive solution ensures a precise fit for Corvette, CTS-V or S-10 swap applications.
Integrated Power Steering Pump and Reservoir Design
This drive system merges the power steering pump and fluid reservoir into a single unit, eliminating the need for separate components and complex hose routing. By consolidating these elements, fluid lines run more directly, reducing potential leak points and simplifying maintenance. The built in reservoir is sized to ensure consistent fluid supply under all driving conditions, while the pump delivers precise steering assistance. This thoughtful integration also frees up space in tight engine bays, making it ideal for compact LS swap installations.
Precision Fit for Simplified Engine Swap Applications
Each bracket and pulley on the Alternator and Power Steering Drive is precision machined to match the contours of common LS bellhousings and medium length balancers. Included alignment hardware guarantees that the alternator and pump pulleys stay in perfect plane, avoiding belt misalignment and premature wear. Because no welding is required, installation time is reduced and variables that can introduce errors are removed. Installers benefit from a direct bolt-in experience that mirrors factory tolerances for a seamless swap.
Streamlined Accessory Drive for Improved Engine Efficiency
Optimized pulley spacing ensures the shortest practical belt path, which minimizes parasitic drag on the engine and helps maintain peak accessory performance. By positioning the alternator and power steering pump within a compact envelope, the system reduces belt tension losses and lowers noise levels. This enhanced efficiency translates into more available horsepower and smoother accessory operation, especially under load. Drivers will notice crisper throttle response and steadier voltage output when the engine is under heavy demand.
Quality Craftsmanship Ensuring Reliable Operation
Manufactured in the USA under strict quality control protocols, this accessory drive system is built from robust, corrosion resistant materials selected for long term durability. Every unit undergoes inspection for straightness and fit before leaving the factory, ensuring consistent performance across multiple GM models. The reservoir cap and hoses meet automotive fluid standards to resist degradation over time, while the mounting plates retain rigidity even under high steering loads. This commitment to craftsmanship guarantees dependable operation mile after mile.
