Default LS engine swap mounts in a second-gen f-body.

Hello, I have a 71 Firebird that I am dropping an LS engine into. I was wondering what the best swap mounts out there were. I have seen some that set the engine back 1"; I don't know if that is something that I should do or not. I am setting my car up for more of a Pro-touring style car. I have to buy a new subframe so I figured I would have to buy one out of a Camaro that had a small block in it. What are your opinions?

Edelbrock has nice a kit that includes header, mounts, and exhaust system for $1400. We are using one today.

Thank you Frank. I have to say that you are one of the first guys to respond to most of my posts...which I think is pretty cool being that you have a custom shop and I am sure keeps you pretty busy. I have seen your cars grace the pages of some fine magazine and let me say you guys do some nice work! Thanks for the advice.
