I used the Holley pan on my 65 Cutlass (same platform)My motor may be set a little higher in front as there is 1/2" clearance between tie rods ends and pan at full lock. Made my own mounts,built my own acc. brackets using GTO PS pump and alt and moved the a/c to upper pass. side (sandin compressor).4L60e trans needed a little tunnel reshaping but nothing serious. Still working on exhaust but have a pair of 2010 Camaro manifolds that look promissing. The early A body seems to be a tighter fit for these swaps than the more pleniful 68 up's. Pan clearance and exhaust seem to be the real problem areas. Good luck, it's a fun project.

Dougs Headers and motor mount adapters(worked fantastically,just make sure to use new motor mounts,preferably urathane)

I made my own engine mounts, BRP mid headers, my own trans mount for turbo 400/gearvenders, S&P pan, made my own AC mount using corvette drive, now everything drives off one belt, did not have to notch xmember for AC compresser clearence. car is in my storage area so no pics, been working on other cars too much I think...
