Default summit racing LS conversion motor mounts

Has anybody tried a set of conversion mounts with an lq4 in a 3rd gen that's sold by summit racing? I'm looking at one of these sets. I know hawks and spohn sell them, but I don't want to wait until the end of next week to get the mounts. I'm hoping one of these sets will work with my stock motor mounts.

What kind of car are you referring to a "3rd gen"?

These mounts you listed are for different styles of chassis.

I have a set of Spohn ls swap frame mounts with f-body motor mounts and poly inserts ready to ship depending on what vehicle you are working on.
These are designed to work in place of clamshell sbc mounts in vehicles that originally came with them.

3rd gen as in an 82-92 fbody car. I have an 87 gta i'm swapping an lq4 in. I went with the second link and it didn't work. Those mounts have the oil pan sitting on the k member by about an inch. I think they were designed to be used with the muscle car swap oil pan.

The mounts you have for sale look like the spohn mounts for my car. Do you have a part # for the swap brackets? How long would it take you to ship everything out?

They are part#: 971 from Spohn's website. They are the black version.
The poly inserts are energy suspension and the motor mounts are stock f-body pieces.
I could ship the set out as early as Tuesday morning, as the post office is closed Monday.

Those are for my car. Are the poly inserts already installed? I'm interested in everything.

They are not installed currently but they are in the original packaging.
