okay I am in the middle of swapping a 2002 ls1 and 4l60e into my 95 v6 5 speed camaro. I bought a wrecked 02 for the swap and also bought a lt1 body style crossmember for my tranny. well it wont fit.(see pic) using the lt1 crossmember and the 02 tranny mount. I looked at an lt1 tranny mount and it looks like it wont work either. What are you guys using for this? I cant even modify the crossmember cuz the bolt isnt anywhere near it.

When I put in a poly Z28 mount in my 3.4, I had to elongate the slot a little bit.
Try making a cardboard mock up adapter plate then take it to a shop to get welded, I cant see that costing too much. You could always go with a UMI or BMR crossmember as well. Ryan @ UMI is pretty knowledgable and can tell you what product you need.

And don't try to get away with just a flat piece of steel! Given what the piece is doing, you're going to want some strength in the vertical plane!!

Good luck.
