Squint real hard to see the dark blue!!

Dark Blue = LSX engine
Bright Red = CHevy truck side

I read on the LS1 swap sticky that if the 3 bolt part was moved to the front an inch, the driveshaft / crossmember changing would be minimalized. What do you guys think? Top is what some places sell now, bottom is what i will mock up in aluminum tomorrow(hopefully)




3/8 thick aluminum, countersunk holes on the red circles to flush mount whatever hardware i decide to put in. Once this part works, then i will put some "ears" on it make it out of steel and weld it *crosses fingers*
