2010 - 2015 Camaro LS motor mounts?

[crakarjax]

Has anyone tried using 2010-2015 Camaro engine mounts in their C10? They look pretty clean but it's not clear how much they will sit the engine off the crossmember, or whether they will clear the frame rails. Pics would be super helpful!

I did it or a 1955 ford truck and it works great.

im planning on using the ones that came with mine on my 3100 AD...my frame is going to be custom built though

I'd make them work!!! No compressor clearance issues like with dirty dingo mounts. You can remove the stock motor mount frame perches and one less item for headers to typically hit!! You can modify if and as needed the crossmember, down low and out of the way. This way you will dictate your driveline angle to match the rear end, and i believe your engine/trans will sit lower in the frame and this helps with handling in corners. What do you have to loose? Parts in hand, and a little fab you will be good to go. If i lived in kirkland washington i would just come over and do it to prove the benefits

After looking through a ton of pics it seems that the mounting surface of these would be at about level with the bottom of the oil pan, which won't work for me unless I cut holes in the crossmember for these to pass through, down to the bottom surface of the crossmember.

I do already have TBSS brackets that I can use and I was hoping to find something stock but cleaner, but the TBSS tuck in really close to the block so they are probably my best bet. I might use C5 mounts with the TBSS brackets for an easier installation (half the bolt count!) -- I read that the oil filled ones are prone to failure but I found a solid rubber model (WESTAR EM2993S).
