Re: Engine placement help

just keep in mind the interior stuff like heater and ac if you plan to use them. otherwise that becomes a whole new can of worms. foot room as well.

Re: Engine placement help

Hey guys thanks for the help!! It’s helpful to see all the different set ups! Root? Is that the high mount holly system, I liked the way the holly mid mount was set up but I’m not running a/c, so that system won’t work, did you look into the low mount system? Again thanks everyone!!

Re: Engine placement help

you could get something like this and use panel adhesive to glue it in. could possibly fab something if you have welding skills. cut out what you don't want from the old one and glue this on over top. then you still have the proper holes in behind to drill through if required for mounting heaters etc. that's if you want the stock interior items.

I used this.

I didn't buy the whole accessory drive kit from them, just the bracket. Their instructions lists all the Gm part numbers you need to buy the other stuff. I shopped around for all the other stuff for it.

I didn't look at the low mount system. I picked this one because it was the same as the corvette accessory drive so not only does it give me more front clearance but it also puts the alternator in the right place to fit my fuel rail covers.
