It's like going back 15 years or so to the first LS swap into a 69 Camaro. Lol. I recommend your system for OEM drivetrain. Love mine. But not for a LS swap. No way. I feel others pain now that I'm planning a conversion. If I wanted to reinvent the wheel I would go out, invest in some chassis tuning books, re educate myself in everything from bump steer to etc and build my own front end. Maybe take a class under the direction of Ron Sutton. I'm sorry but this lack of information is __________(fill in the blank).
Im no longer at the shop(RideTech) but most...maybe all of the parts used on the 48 hour camaro LS swap are list here that may help.


I used real simple parts on my own car
TALL 1969 350 factory engine mounts
Prothane engine plate and mount kit #7-519
Moroso Pan #20140 and the correct pick up
Sanderson Headers #LS10

but I'm not in the LS swap business, I just a hot rodder, maybe we should ask someone that is in the LS swap business to do it, like Holley, BRPhotrods, Muscle rods or so on
