LS_Sonoma Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 Drain your radiator, Pull the tensioner to releaser the belt. Metric size 10mm or 12mm bolt heads I believe for the pump bolts. Replace it with a WP for a LS2 corvette. The pulley has a shallower face and is far easier on the eyes. I wanna say those bolts are not torque to yield, so you are good there also.

LS_Sonoma Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 Good time to go to an electric pump. Not a bad idea actually. I believe Moroso has a kit to put an electric BB chevy water pump on a LS engine now and they are significantly cheaper than a Meizer electric LS pump.
