I would like to get a list of parts needed to build a lsx conversion on a chevelle (a body). I have see one for a camaro, but would like to have this info available to me as well as others. I would like to keep it a body (preffer 68-72). So please list parts or pm me and I can do a sheet. Thank you for your help.
I will be doing a swap on a 71 chevelle. with a 5.3l 4l60e

I still have to get the fuel system together (there's a thread on here somewhere where I ran through the list of parts) and I expect I'll be making headers... but for me the list reads like this:
LSx
Chevelle (well, El Camino)
1/4" plate for motor mounts
LSx wiring harness
Fuel system
Exhaust
There's not anything wonky with oilpan clearance; since the A-body is front-steer, the centerlink doesn't interfere. You can play with the fore/aft location and height to clear whatever you want; the place I put mine requires a litte notching of the frame for the compressor.
On the other hand, at one point I had a set of the ATS engine mounts in my hand. They were very nice, and if I had more money I'd have probably bought a set for myself.
