68-72 A-body LSX swap guys in here

What motor mount combinations did you guys use to get your setups installed??
Frame mounts, plates, motor mounts, oil pan, etc.

BESIDES the BRP kit which costs ~$500.....

I've seen in MOST applications whatever option they chose they had to add in spacers
to clear the front linkages. Just curious to see what others have done.
I've got a 2008 LY6 6.0L LS with a T-56 going into my 1970 442.
Chevy, Pontiac, Buick, Olds, etc....no matter, just need to know what works.

I used the factory OEM ls1 F-body engine mounts and fabbed my own frame mounts from LS1 f-body frame mounts or they can easily be fabbed from scratch. Allows you to place the engine were you want it bolts right in.

Edelbrock plates & Headers (Discontinued)
GM LS2 6.0L CTS-V pan
Chevelle big block mounts & Energy Suspension engine stands or mounts
summit weld up cross member for double exhaust kit

Trans Dapt / Moroso / Energy Suspension & Hooker Headers all make Ls swap plates - it depends on what you want for a set back.
The Energy Suspension plates come with the Polyurethane mounts, make sure you get the correct ones.

The CTS-V pan is still available along with GM Performance #809-19212593K1
There are several kits with the pan, plates, headers & Polyurethane mounts, everything except the engine stands for about $850.

Just make sure you match the Polyurethane mounts with the engine stands

browse Jegs or Summit for ideas

I'm attempting this setup.....
$30 engine plates off ebay
Energy Suspension 3.1117R mounts
SBC Frame mounts that go with the above engine mounts.

Another A-body guy used the above with success.
I just got 1/4" spacers for the Frame mounts as well for oil pan clearance of the steering linkage.
I'm hoping the F-body pan works. Some said it does without a hitch, others said it needed mods.

check those ebay plates for weld quality, as if they're chinese-made you might be replacing them in short order
