Not sure for your truck but i used ATS mounts for my 68 firebird and they moved the engine about an inch back and 3/8" up (from what i have read) from the factory location. You use standard SBC frame mounts on your K member, then bolt standard SBC motor mounts to the adapter plates which mount to the LS1 block. Try brphotrods.com to see if they have a kit. They have kits for everything it seems.

I used the carshop plates on my 86 c10 6.0/4l80e swap.
Stock manifolds would not work. Either get the s&p headers or fbody manifolds.

Did we do the standards or 1" setback units?
