I used the BRP mounts when I stuck my 00 z28 ls1 in my 87 monte carlo...didn't have to relocate the alternator, but it is tight...I have some pictures of the alternator and steering gearbox area if you'd like to see them.

Verdad Gallardo Doesn't sound like I'll be much help then lol. I'd opted out of the headers for now to buy the rest of the stuff to get it running and driving so I was using the stock camaro manifolds. Unfortunately some DA pulled out in front of me and the car is totalled so I guess maybe i'm lucky i didnt put them on yet. Any particular pictures you're looking for? I have a few, but hadn't taken hardly any pictures. Was waiting to get all the wiring and few leaks I had fixed before a photoshoot.
