    The problem with those are they are designed for the old school small block engines, not the GEN III LSx version engine your trying to put in. I&#39;m not positive but I highly doubt that they have the same mounting hardware.

    Look at this page and you can see that they clearly distinquish that there is a difference between the small block and LS1 mounts.

    Don&#39;t know if you&#39;ve read through this yet but I&#39;m sure it will help you.

    Looks like you&#39;ll just need to find yourself a set of 4.8/5.3 mounts. Not sure what the registers are that they are talking about.

    4.8/5.3 mounts. Are you talking about the ones that mount to the engine or welded to the frame? They are the same as the 6.0 mounts. I already checked that out. I have to have some way to make the bolts be horizontal across. the b8 bolts kind of angle down. I will try and get some pics. I know it may seem confusing.

    I would imagine both sides (engine & frame) but I&#39;m not really the expert on this so I would suggest talking with Demon about since he has already done this exact project.
    Actually the 6.0 mounts would be the same since I&#39;m using the 5.3 mounts to hold up my 6.0.


    Demon just started up a new thread pertaining to all of this over at GMFullsize.com. He seems to be on there a lot more. I would post up your questions here; http://www.gmfullsize.com/forum/showthread.php?t=57194
