Re: Pre-LS swap questions

Well the engine is in... but with issues. I am going to have to raise the engine in the frame because of oil pan to ground clearance and I might swap the pan to an f-body pan too just incase. I also don't know if my crank pulley will have enough clearance to the steering rack so moving the engine up will help there too. Also, just as Brew City predicted, my exhaust manifolds won't work. They fit but there is no way to get the steering linkage past them plus there is only an 8th of an inch or clearance to the frame. Looks like I'll need to find something else.

Has anyone tried these? http://www.speedwaymotors.com/LS1-Ti...FQcOaQodwwcLbg

They look like they will work from what I saw on other forums while google searching but at that price I am skeptical on quality.

I'll keep you guys posted.
