Surely putting an LS1 in an A-body isn't THIS easy?
Had to cut the top out of my tunnel, but the engine is in and clears the crossmember without having to notch the pan or modify the crossmember (yes, that's like 3 or 4 inches between the head and the firewall):

This pic the engine is just sitting on the crossmember (with the sump behind the crossmember) - the engine needs to come up 1/8-1/4" and needs to move back the same. I may start making the mounts tomorrow (1/4" steel plate).
I know I'll have to notch the front of the crossmember to clear the AC lines and I'll need to work up a tranny mount, but since this was easier than I would have expected surely I'm missing something? Any gotchas I need to be watching for at this point?
