Go to ebay and put "LS1 motor mounts" in the search engine.
thanks man i found them. there two types a universal and a 1" set back which one can i use my stock driveshaft with.
depends on your tranny...
I bought the carshopinc ls1 plates
I had a th350 in my truck, dropped in a 6.0/4l80e, had to move my crossmember to the rear holes, but driveshaft fit perfect.
It's a tossup.
im going with the 5.3L and TH400 tranny.
drive shafts arnt a big deal there are plenty of places around to get one made. I got mine form a 4x4 shop in longview texas
Im using Trans dapt stock location plates on mine. Dont remeber if I had to move the cross member or not but im using the stock drive shaft. Moving the cross member isnt too hard. Be prepared to beef up your rear suspension because i have bent and broken the leaf spring perches on the axle. Might have something to do with the leafs being under the axle though.
good news i found a 5.3L for the c10 but i want to get more info on the motor first.
