I am running a second gen 10 bolt in my truck with a camaro clip. I mounted my engine in the stock camaro motor mounts and found that the engine is offset to the passenger side by the same amount as the rear end offset. In researching it I found that Chevy did this intentionally, though I'm not sure why. Perhaps It may have been to give more room for the Steering box and shaft?
