This is a stock LT Gen V engine front showing the VVT cam solenoid and harness.

You will need to remove and rotate the solenoid to point the plug down. The edge of the mounting flange will have to be filed for bolt clearance. The pattern is off and you will reinstall the factory bolt over the outside of the flange.

Cut the top loop off of the retaining bracket, wrap and secure the harness underneath the cam solenoid.

With LT4 and LT5 supercharged applications and 8 rib belt kits we reccomend cutting the ears off the cam solenoid and rotate connector as shown using the factory bolts and aluminum retaining plate. This plate is included with Gen V 8 rib kits.
