P-Ayr also makes foam transmissions etc so you can really mock the entire thing up...

All LS blocks have the same exterior dimensions so you can at least measure placement in the sub, but an LS9 accessory drive (or oil pan) may interfere w a rack/rails depending on which sub you're running or building.

May or may not affect your situation, but the A/C compressor is located in a different location. It's on the lower passenger side of the engine on the LSA.

Thanks for the info guys..

Might have to try and build some flexibility into the sub frame.

I had a look at the payr site and I couldnt find any t56 magnums on there.
