The first thing we needed to do was test fit the motor and verify the mounts worked. We also measured to see which oil pan we wanted to go with.

The mounts fit well and gave us plenty of room at the back of the motor, around the steering linkage, and the cross member
.

It should scream for sure. No sludge just a dark tint in the valley area, but it will be well maintained by its current owner

Most of the change had to do with efficiency and reliability. The 540 was nice, it made 650 hp and sounded nasty but only got 10-12 mph on the hwy with the tko 600. Also the rest of the drivetrain couldn't handle the horsepower so when we went to the track we just broke parts. The owner was very antiLS until he rode in my car and silver82's truck. Its nice to have something that is reliable enough to drive everyday, still make big power, and get high teen mpg's. Plus for the price of selling his 540, tko 600, and stock rear end internals we were able to fund this project. So now that all the drivetrain will be on the same page he can drive this thing everywhere and still go to the track and have fun.

70 Chevelle
Sure looks like this car. If it is, it is working well! 10s in the quarter. The description sounds exactly the same in the video. 6.0, TH400, 3.42 gear, LSA blower.
