I have an LT engine, not an LS, but the dimensions are about the same. I had to move it forward 1.75", which was the next set of holes on the adapter plates. This gave me about 1" of room behind the valve covers. It worked well with the 6l trans as the tailshaft was almost in exactly the same place as the TH400 and I had to shorten the driveshaft 3/4".
