Re: LY6/TR6060 Swap from a 5.3/4L60E

I've got the stock V8 stands and used the adapter type plates that are about 1/4" and F Body oil pan. Seems I will not have any issues with drive line angles. But then, Mine also has leaf springs. I wanted to keep the trailing arm setup but it was not stock to this frame and left other challenges. I had the leaf spring already sitting over in the yard so boom. I figured that my Nova's And Camaro's have them and they handle fine with a couple upgrades. My trans crossmember is a custom unit purchased on Ebay and my trans is really close to the floorboard and most likely will need to cut the floorboard for the shifter and use the above custom high hump. Driveline angles look to be very nice. I guess you could use a Cardan Joint if the angle is still unacceptable. I have a big one ton Cardan Joint on the rear of my 4x4 for wheeling and it has never given me any trouble.
