Re: LT1 GenV swap

Motor mounts checked off the list





The 1st aluminum motor mount adapters turned put to be usefull. A heat sink/fixture to help prevemt the plate from warping. If I were to have used them and the stock 3bolt bracket, it put the valve cover wicked close to the brake booster. I lowered the motor enough to give the driveline angle about 3-4* and have the trans pan barely below the frame rail. Also keeps the vacuum pump and stock ac compressor. Win win.. When the motor comes out for the last time, I'll hit it with some paint.
