      Distributor Conversion Kit. The PRW Power Front Cover and Gear Assembly is engineered to convert LS Gen III engines for use with traditional 4-barrel carburetor and distributor ignition systems. It provides a practical solution for those switching from fuel injection to carburetor setups or competing in classes that require distributor ignition. This assembly drives the distributor and mechanical fuel pump, making it essential for LS engine swaps or performance builds aiming to combine modern engine reliability with classic ignition systems.

      Construction and Appearance. Made from durable A356 cast aluminum, this front cover includes a cast aluminum timing chain cover, camshaft gear, and drive adapter hubs. The assembly is finished as-cast, offering a sturdy, reliable component designed to handle high-performance conditions without additional coatings or finishes.

      Installation. Installation is straightforward with a detailed step-by-step guide included. No special drilling is required. The assembly requires compatible components such as a small block Ford distributor, mechanical fuel pump, and water pump designed for front mount distributor drive, which are not included.

      Application. This front cover assembly fits 1997-2013 Corvette C5 & C6 models. It is specifically designed for LS Gen III engines equipped with 4-barrel carburetor and distributor setups in these vehicles without exceptions noted.
