Im about to start on a 63 nova with a 5.3 turbo, front mounted. Plan on running the stock subframe, only aftermarket lower arms. Will take pics as we progress with the progress. anyone done a front mounted turbo with a stock subframe? Share!

so basically to install a lsx in a 63 will not be bad with swap mounts and running a th350 correct? just the headers will be a issue with the stock steering box in place. i plan on going carb set up also,no a/c or p/s. just a alternator. i am a little confused on what i will need to do for a oil pan using the stock front clip and steering though??

For stock steering linkage the GTO pan is the way to go.No production headers currently available for LSx stock steering but BRP is supposed to be workiong on a set.Engine position will be critical for any manufactures header to fit.If you are considering upgrading to Rack and Pinion steering (power or manual) Churchboys Racing makes a real nice set of 1 3/4 stainless headers that come with the engine mount adapter plates.Then you can use an F body pan.TH350 will work if you use a flywheel spacer as I recall.Transmission crossmember may require modification.I to am looking to do a carb'd 6.0 in my 67 when funds allow.
