My logic is that I most likely won't be the only guy that upgrades to a LSx drivetrain w/the rising costs of petrol.

How much farther forward are the LSx motor-mount tower tabs on the c.member vs. the sbc tabs?

They're actually set back a bit. Looks like ~3"; I haven't had one of each to compare. It looks like the rear tab is in virtually the same spot... Here's a photo comparison: SBC(top), LSX(mine,bottom)
