My motor mounts are as follows:
Car shop inc ls adaptor plates
Energy suspension poly eng mount zinc part # 3.1114r
Moroso solid frame mounts for SBC
Champ sheetmetal oil pan with baffles.
I had to grind off a little ear on the moroso frame mounts, and I might put in a 1/2 inch plate to raise the motor a little.
The motor sits low to the crossmember, but there is plenty of room with this oil pan set up.
Fbody accessories all clear fine. I am not running a/c.

To the op, first of all great work. I just picked up an 87 monte Carlo that I plan to do a tt lsx setup on, I wanted to know if you every test fitted the truck manifolds in the down and forward position. I don't plan on running ac or ps, thanks and keep up the work

I tried down and forward to fit but I think it was hitting steering box assembly. U might have better luck with a different manifold then a truck Manifold for that.
I had the pipes welded locally, a single turbo setup in a gbody is probably going to be easier then the twins in the long run.
