Ok I just got my LT-1 in and I have a cople questions. I am a bit confused, I want to use the further back position to mount the motor so I have more clearance for the radiator fans and what not.

So what do I use the V-8 towers in the rear location?
Or do I use the I-6 towers in the rear location?
Then what motor mounts do I use?

V8 mounts in the rear holes and I think I used the caged style older chevy camero mounts

You can use the 6 cylinder mounts in the 6 cyl position

Go to hotrodlane.com. IT is Street and Performance. They can answer your question. That is who I used. I don't remember exactly what I did. Lambert there should have your answer. Kerry

just pick up some I6 towers which mount in the rear position.

if you can wait a couple weeks, i have a pair you can have, otherwise check the classified section, they're always popping up pretty cheap.

Thanks I have some one who has a set for me locally I just wanted to make sure I needed the I-6 towers.

Now what do I use for the motor mounts on those towers?
