    I used these mounts for my swap. They worked like a charm. These things are worth every penny.

    Do you know if they will work in other Chevy SBC to LS swaps? G body, Camaro, etc?

    Thanks Slow!.. maybe not so slow now.

    I've run these in 2WD and 4WD 88-99 trucks. A local guy has used them for his 99 Tahoe swap, and he's in the process of using another set on a 70's K5 pickup project.
    As for cars, I sell the same mounts to the B-body guys, and the LT1 94-96 guys get slightly modified versions for the offset right side mount. There's no reason they won't work on a G body. The car guys use either the 98-02 Fbody pan or the Holley swap pan. I was actually in the quoting phase of making my own swap pan, but Holley came out with theirs, and they pretty much had the same idea, I would have moved the sump a little further forward, but it's pretty close to ideal. FWIW, the Fbody pan is still made by GM, they use it in some industrial applications. It's not going away for a while.

    Trust me guy's, Mike knows what he is doing. I was around once in a while to see the stages of progress when he was planning and building a couple of his ideas. They are well thought out and not just thrown together to make a quick buck. Buy with confidence.

    So this is the long story short, 5.3 to 6.0 (plus some extra HP & TQ) Thanks to Mike and Don for their patience with me and my specifics. We did the swap in one day while I was on leave for X-mas. The next day I installed the MagnaFlow Cat Back, all is working excellent together. Drove it back to Ft. Stewart a couple days later.

    Hey, thanks for the mounts. Lined up perfectly! Gave them a shot of primer and hit up lowe's for some 10x1.5x20 bolts/lockwashers and slapped them on.
