LS 5.3 mount angle for stand Looking at the block with my calibrated Mk I Eyeball, it looks like the motor mount location is 45 degrees relative to the ground. Is this a proper assumption? I am building a castered stand for my block to roll around on while it’s in the queue to be built. Anyone have drawing of this angle?

Being that the cylinder banks are splayed 90 degrees, and half of that is 45 degrees, and being that the mount pads are smack against these 45 degree angled cylinder banks, your powers of observation have served you well.
