GEN V LT1 Swap Questions

[itsmike2k]

Hey Guys been out for some time and getting back into building my 72 C10.. Its been 16 or so years so now I'm going with a different setup..

I have a 23 LT1 w/ 10L90E that im going to put in the truck now, getting rid of the 90s LT1 i had in it. My current truck had the clam shell motor mounts and perches, i think like BBC in these, but since im installing the NO Limit rack i have to move the perches back or get new ones.

For all the people that have done this swap already what perch and mounts have you had luck with.. I have DD LT1 Gliders but i really don't have the adjustability because of the clamshell mounts. The motor also seem to sit high, or at least i have to raise the trans off the Xmember a couple inches to get it inline.. Im think i would like new perches and im not opposed to getting different swap brackets. Also if there is a better option for the 10L90E cross member i would love to know..

Thanks!!

I'm using the hooker black heart mounts on my LT1 swap. These mounts are known to sit the engine pretty low. I'm using sn 8l90 so I can't answer the question about the transmission mount.

X2 on the Hooker/Holley setup. But mine is a Gen3. I used the CTS-v pan and it fits great.

I had success with the Hooker Holley setup too....

I was going to get these from Speedway that look like exact replicas of the Hooker Holley, but I'm doing a 1967 this time and it has the wider frame rails, so I ended up getting the Hooker Holley for the wider frame rails...

Speedway also has kit with transmission crossmember and the clamshells that I wanted to get:
