It looks like it should be a 3/4" spacer?
Also does the size of the actual alternator or mounting points change on it? Do I need to swap to the Camaro alternator to run that bracket setup?
Later when I add power steering and AC, do I run the truck components or look for Camaro ones?
Thanks

Like was already stated, Run a LS3/L99 5th gen Camaro water pump so you can retain "Truck" belt spacing.
No offense to anyone, But running a "Car" Intake while retaining the high mount Alternator looks really weird, The whole point to this is to make the engine look better......
Why not convert to PS during the swap?? CaptianFab sells frame brackets to adapt a later Saginaw gearbox.
Got these 2011 L99 Water Pump, Brackets, Bolts & Accessories for $300 from a guy doing a LSA top end on his Camaro. Don't forget the LS6 Valley Cover for the better PCV.
