Re: Restoring Rusty

Motor mounts, motor mounts, motor mounts

seems like the first thing we need to do is find a way to install the actual engine in the truck... and for that we need to find a way to bolt it in some how, and there is an obvious difference in the blocks motor mount system SBC (3 bolt) vs LSes (4 bolt)

many choices, people seem to like the aluminum LSX Innovations (some hate them cause supposedly they crack, but I hear that is user error, see one of the videos below)

I like making my own solutions, so I really dig this young man and how he is a problem solver, rare these days in the iPhone iGeneration

MrJohn613 Budget LS Swap : Adapt Motor Mounts Free DIY question is, would you do this?


Bad Luck Garage WHICH LS SWAP ENGINE MOUNTS DO I USE? recommends the LSX Innovations motor mount adapter plates

these work if you want to keep the factory LS AC according to Lonnie's Garage (Puppetkicker) 1984 C10 Project ---- LS Swap Part 1 (Motor, Mount Adaptor Plates, and More)
