Did you build that LS engine crossmember largely from scratch? Damn fine work!

The crossmember is from Off Road Design. I am not that skilled LOL!

Re: 1967 K30 Longhorn 4x4 6.0 4l80 205 Build.
I have the engine set in place. Sitting pretty at 4.5° down relative to the frame. I had to place the transmission crossmember inside the frame rather than suspended under the frame like some 1981 up trucks come from the factory. The oils pan is close to the crossmember on the passenger front corner. I will be using thicker steel adapter plates and new engine mounts. That should fix the minimal clearance l have currently.

I got the lower tab of the cab mount modified. I copied all the front spring placement from a 1976 military frame. This is where the shackles landed. Not a problem. Just another thing to modify.
