LS Swap engine mounts
 
Looking for feedback on LS Swap engine mounts that you guys have used. Would like one of the adjustable ones to give me some options for engine postion. Any brands to stay away from?

I used Dirty Dingo. They were the first sliders that I am aware of.

if a guy is willing to build the stand side of your mounts, These will work with the stock truck style a/c bracket. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I used these - "Billet Engine Swap Bracket SBC LS Conversion Motor Mount Adjustable Plate LS1 LS3 Adapter Motor 551628". Picked them up from Amazon. Inexpensive, adjustable, and both look and work great.

Hey flubyyou -
Yes I used them with the standard mounts and the stock bracket to the lower crossmember. Honestly I do not remember exactly which hole I used - I think it was the middle holes though . . .
