JMortensen Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 Been doing a bit of research on motor plates and how it affects the front of the LS1. Apparently you have to shim the oil pump out and sometimes machine the balancer. A thread on ls1tech.com suggested just using solid regular motor mounts. Is there a downside to this? If I'm starting from scratch it seems like I could easily make plates or boxed in brackets that bolt to the stock motor mount location and frame rail. Could probably even weld the brackets in so that the block sat directly on them and then you just screw the block straight to the bracket which is part of the chassis.
