Yeah I get that alot. Part of the fun around here!

First time meeting Justin from Scott's he says, "man those guys like to give you a hard time!"

Glad you got a plan and you're rolling...

Well,

I went ahead and ordered the trans-dapt stock location motor mounts, part number 4592. They were $64 so if they don't work like I want them to I'll get different ones or I'll just make my own plates to relocate everything since I'll have a pattern.

So far, engine mounts have been my least favorite thing to shop for. Everybody and their brothers, sisters and extended family makes a mount and there's stories all over about one working and the other not in different applications. Screw it. I'm getting these and if I don't like it I'll get out the mill and a welder.

Today I ordered a '69 Camaro 6 cyl. gas pedal so that I can connect by cable to my throttle body. I'll have to figure out which cable to use next.

I also splurged on the MGW short throw shifter. I know I shouldn't have and should have instead put that into a clutch but I'll be miserable without it. I'm spoiled after driving a Subaru 6 speed with a short throw for a few years.

On an unrelated note, I finally bought a "Zerk Zapper" tool to try to get grease into the fittings of my old truck. After my clutch incident yesterday, I really need to get some grease into those things.

makes cable that will work. I like their (Lokar) gas pedal for a 1st Gen better than the stock 6 cylinder pedal as well.

Been there and done that.

Those are the one i used on my 2nd gen, 04 Goat LS1. Works good so far. The angle is a little off at the MAF, i may tweek later for better visual, but that Lokar part works really well. Do it....
