Default Resto-mod Engine / Trans Mount

For all those who have a C2 SRIII chassis with an LSX engine, what engine mount did you use?

I was eyeing something like:

If you have a T56 magnum, what trans mount did you use?

Thoughts?

Default Resto Mod Engine Mounts

Try calling Mark at Street & Performance (479-394-5711). We built a dozen C2 Resto Mods w/LS engines and he knows exactly what you need for engine mounts, headers, intakes, etc.

I would contact SRIII, i know for my Streetshop Chassis, I had it made for Corvette style LS Mounts, which are offset compared to F-Body and GTO mounts.
I would bet your frame is set up to accept one style already.

SRIII is set up to accept stock, old-style GM motor mounts like a smallblock uses. You just bolt an adapter plate to the LS block and bolt the mounts to it. There are dozens of vendors that sell the LS adapter plates, or you can make your own.
