Wow are these all Chevelles in progress. Good to see everyone moving along. What motor mounts did you end up using? What were the complications associated with them?
Good Work. We need some pics.

Suspension wise... Afco spring adjusters 9inch free height springs, in the back they are 12 inch free height, single pig tail. Its pretty simple right now. Gotta get it on the road yet!
Thanks for the comments, I'll try and get some crappy footage tonight and some alright pictures

Looks good. I've been planning on ordering those springs and adjusters. What pound springs are they? 750 front/ 150 rear? Looks good I will be doing some tunnel surgery for my T56.
Whell and tire specs please?
Any other necessary mods w/ BMP mounts? Notched pan, CTS pan ... Which pan are you running?
Thanks - Trying to get this straightened out because the motor will see it's first test fit this weekend.

650 fronts 175 rears. (I'm gonna step up to 850/225 or 950/250 once I get more suspension work done)
Wheels/Tires 16x8 GM ZQ8 S-10 wheels. 255/50/16 rubber. Kumho 712's.
Oil pan.... Camaro oil pan with no mods. Thats how far the BRP mounts set it back. You put them on the engine, lower the engine in place get it straight and all that good stuff, tack the clam shells to the frame, pull engine out leaving clam shells there. Drill new holes and put your hardware in.

Thanks that solves my mount problem. Wow this forum rocks. I'll get some pics of my project up this weekend.
What are your suspension plans?
I'm stock front. Rear: SSM lift bars lower, BMR adjustable uppers, Wolfe Spherical bushings and a passenger side bag. Will be doing sprins soon. The LS1 will make the front ride high.

Put up some pics when you get a chance so we can see what you have done.
