Was this a used kit that was purchased? Because that is not a C6 bracket. Which is the problem. Give us a call and lets see what we can do to help you out.

Probably a C5 bracket. I had the same issues but I knew what I was getting into. Can be worked around but easier with the right bracket for sure.

That is a C5 bracket, which is not what was on Lee's car, so you have me a little confused here.

That's what I don't understand . Lee had a electric water pump as well as a ls7 intake . Not sure on positioning differences to the ls3 intake/tb

I noticed that in the pics. That would take care of the water pump for sure. I don't know if the throttle body sits differently on an LS7. Maybe its a C5 bracket and he never knew because it worked on his setup. I think Doug could tell you better on that.

Not sure about ECS but with A&A brackets it is engraved with C5 or C6.

It does sit in a different location vs. an LS3. I found this out after installing an LS7 Airaid intake on my '08 LS3 car when it was N/A. Mounting grommets on the radiator cover wouldn't line up due to the throttle body location differences.
