Default Mounts and cross members that work in 2nd gen

Any suggestions for a mount and cross member combo in a 2nd gen TA? Will be installing an e-Rod LS3 and a 4L70E tranny.

thanks

Thanks but that’s a bit out of my price range.

From my research it appears that most mounts aren’t designed around the Firebird (instead around the Camaro and its SBC350). As my TA is a 77 there was no SBC350 available for it.

Has anyone has been able to install the available mount options on a Firebird without having to mod the mounts to fit (i.e. bolt in)?

thanks again

Might go diffing through the swap conversions section then see if you can stumble on a build thats been there?

yours the 6.6?

The car currently has the 6.6L Pontiac 400 motor. The new engine is the 6.2L E Rod LS3. Thanks
