Why the 42lb injectors? Can I get a pic of your clutch mounting if possible?

Looks nice. I hope to do a 64 Chevelle with a LS1 motor and T56 in the near future.

Your post has me thinking of doing a LS1 swap into my 65 chevelle. What are you doing for exhaust as far as headers go? Did I miss that in the posts somewhere?

Did you use the Street and Performance extra offset (+1" longer) mounts or the standard set? I just got my shortblock for my 1970 El Camino and will be doing the same thing shortly...

I am not sure what mount it is for sure, i called them and told them 65 chevelle and that is what they sent me.. For reference the bottom hole of the factory chevelle mount, uses the bottom left bolt of the ls1 mount (drivers side)

I can't wait to see what the fit looks like once you have the accessories on the engine. That is my main concern for my swap.

Hopefully I can get that far within this next week and get some pictures of that up on here. When I originally had the motor in the car all the accessories worked out quite well (im not runnin a/c) waterpump/alternator/powersteering
