LSx Engine placement

[WS6]

hooker plates are designed to set a Gen3/4 engine bell housing mounting pad in the same location as a SBC. That means the transmission will be in the same place. The problem you run into in general with these plates is that the heads on a Gen3/4 engine also sit further back on the block as compared to a SBC. So, the heads usually end up hitting some part of the firewall. If others have used the hookers in your same chassis, go for it. However, the hooker plates are quite possibly the ugliest most over priced plates. They look like they were made with a hacksaw, belt sander, and hand drill. They cost just a little less than others that look much nicer. I know functionality matters most. I just don't like seeing an ugly part that costs a nice amount of money
