Title: Need Help Swapping 6.0ls with 4l80e in 82
Post by: Vasbinder on August 10, 2021, 02:36:18 pm

What are the best engine mounts and cross Member to use for this swap. Can I run the factory A/C location on the L.S?

If you are talking aftermarket I would personally look at Holley's C10 swap (https://www.holley.com/products/ls_power/ls_swap_systems/1973-87_gm_c10_2wd_ls_swap_components/) kit or Tejas Steelworks (https://tejassteelworks.com/)  Tejas using the factory LS access drive with AC but moves the engine forward 3"


you can use swap plates and then modify the passenger side frame stand and move it back to make room for the AC in the factory location.  this is one from a fellow 73-87 owner on Josh's page:  http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/showthread.php?t=413855
