L76 in a G-body I've used the little search box here and with Google and I haven't found where anyone has put a 6.0 L76 in a G-body which I find very hard to believe. So I've decided to ask, anyone here done it and what parts did you use to install it?

The L76 swap isn't super popular. I'm using one to go in a Jaguar, there's a couple others going into other cars. The physical components to swap into a G-body would be the same as other LSx based swaps. Whatever the required engine mounts, exhaust manifold and oil pan/pickup are, should carryover. The L76 is DBW, but I'm sure others have fit DBW into a G-body as well. The L76 accessories are compact like the Corvette ones.

Thank you, as I said I'm learning as I go. Has anyone put the L76 6.0 in anything that they had clearance issues with the A/C compressor and alternator that are on the bottom of the engine.
