4L80e LM4 5.3L 67 Camaro install ?'s
Planning to install my engine and trans this weekend.
I have the aluminum version of the 5.3L LM7 (2004 LM4 from and Envoy, dont knock it.. it was $475) and im unsure of the crank length? It has the 3 bolt flywheel.
I ordered the 6bolt flywheel from GM Perform. along with the bolts and spacer.
I will also make my own trans crossmember.
Anyone know the degree the engine should be sitting at?
Also after changing the flywheel position, which Starter should be used 5.3 or will the 6.0 bolt up? (I dont have either)
Any other tips would be helpful.
Thanks.

Installed the crank spacer and 6 bolt flywheel.
I still have a 1/4 inch gap between the flywheel and converter?
Ill cut out the exhaust relief w/ some c-channel later. I'de still like to know the engine degree.
