Default I would like pics of madmans lt1 motor plates

I would like pics of madmans lt1 motor plates. I will be putting a new motor in the car in a month or so and would like to see some pics of the motor plates. I think I'm going to order a PA k-member without motor mounts.

Thanks Mike

Did it come cut like that or did you cut more off of it? Kind of looks like the bolt holes are close to the edge of the motor plate.

I dont have any pictures, but my madman sbc motor plates fit very snugly right up against each frame rail. Fit like a glove.

I had to take a bit off of mine to get it in there; very little though.

Thanks and are you guys running the mid plate too? If so how did it fit in there? Did you mount it on the top or the sides?

No mid plate for me. Poly trans mount and a limiter.

Did you use the factory motor mounts then too? Or are you guys only using the front plates and poly trans mount?

Not to sound stupid but what is the limiter?

A limiter is a rod that attaches the frame to the block so it limits the forward/rearward motion of the engine.

I just picked up a Madman LS1 Plate kit and Mid Plate. The mid Plate comes with the tabs to weld to the frame. I am mounting mine on the sides. When I finish up the 25.5 cage I might add a support to the top of it

Thanks

Whats the adapters in between the heads and headers?

I like the way you trimmed below the windshield.

The cowl looks much better now, just got painted.

Those were a spare set of heads I had around for mockup, the headers are 1 7/8 Stahl pattern. Had to use the adapters with those heads. My RR AFR's have the holes pre drilled so no need for the adapter.

I don't have my limiters done yet.
