I used adapter plates, the only thing is that they move the Engine & Trans about 3/4" back toward the rear.

I've heard you can use LS1 mounts and just drill new holes in the LT1 K member. But I didn't want to take a chance of slowing down my swap and just found it easier and cheaper to buy a used LS1 K member.
