5 3L Chevelle swap Motor mounts, fame mounts and placement

[@jimmylee8459]

Dude Thank You Thank You !!! You are the video on KZbin who shows them installed. I'm buying my brackets tonight. I am in the middle of my 70 chevelle SWAP, I swear I'm NEVER doing this again. Looks Good 👍 I just subscribed

[@dkiv20]

Jimmy Lee thanks boss !

[@filbertogarza7400]

I have the 302-2 oil pan for my 5.3 but it’s still hitting on my 1972 Chevelle ? Will this fix the problems?

[@larney37]

Still the best video showing the UMI mounts in an A body! Thanks - I needed this tonight!

[@theshark2804]

I wonder if I should go with the adapters to allow for me to use tall mount for extra ground clearance

[@ron_g72chevy]

I’m installing the same mounts on my car now, with the engine does pitman arm rubs your oil pan when you turn? Because I have read reviews after the purchase having some saying it pretty close to the oil pan

[@dkiv20]

@@ron_g72chevy nope I can get a full turn lock out of mine

[@ron_g72chevy]

@@dkiv20 got them installed just have to slide the motor back

[@slicksloth_416]

Would it be the same on a 1970 cutlass

[@dkiv20]

I’m not sure but I would think because it is a “A” body frame it should work

[@filbertogarza7400]

Do these work ?

[@dedricbullock5567]

I have a 72 buick riviera and cant find a motor mount set for a 6.o lq4 swap. Can you help me figure out which one. The body style I have is a e body gm. What motor mount did you impala use? I think its the same setup?

[@dkiv20]

I can’t remember the mounts for the donk, but for your application you should call summit racing or jegs to see what they say. I know their are mounts that are adjustable or you might have to buy the ones you mock up and weld to the frame, but where there is a will there is a way! Keep me posted

[@dedricbullock5567]

Ok so I went with the 350 clamshell and then went to autozone and got 2292 part number. I drilled holes in frame and purchase dirty dingo sliding motor mounts. This worked perfect.

[@dkiv20]

dedric bullock sounds good post a video.

[@pmotorsports8276]

Use everything for a glass house

[@210GotKickz]

Hey man with these mounts will the transmission still clear the tunnel? Just wanted to ask before I order these for my project. Thanks.

[@loganbannick596]

Did you have to remove the lower control arms to get these mounts in ?

[@dkiv20]

No I didn’t but it was tough getting it in. I would remove the control arm to get it in

[@godcarsmoney]

How did the frame mounts go in?

[@64impalaSSRealMechanic315]

Great project good channel keep it up

[@cikcell12]

Nice work you're doing!

[@dkiv20]

thanks for watching

[@dkiv20]

thanks big bro a lot of work and headache, but it will be worth it in the end

[@82drelarge]

Coming along real good my dude

[@drptp5017]

i just used the kit..they work good. but mske sure you use holley pab 302-2 or top street performance pan 81703..i have to cut transmission tunnel because engine sits high because of mounts

[@bruizerwalker4621]

Have you found out what crossmember is needed for the A body? I’m wanting to do the same setup, but with a 4l60.

[@dkiv20]

Bruizer Walker not yet haven’t gotten that far yet because I’m looking at trying to put a T56 in first. If not then I’ll go 4L60 or 80.....I know summit racing has swap crossmebers or you might be able to modify your existing one.

[@julzam9660]

This should be title. Uuuuuhmm

[@dkiv20]

Jul Zam do you ummmm like the ummmm car? lol 😂

[@soychingon3324]

This motor mounts is good for Chevy camaro 78?

[@bossmigolivares3550]

how was the clearance on the center link and inner tierod ends, on the oil pan?

[@dkiv20]

no rubbing or clearance issues

[@tyferguson564]

Did u use a 4L60e trans?? If so what was needed to mount it to the engine, was u able to use the factory crossmember with the trans?

[@dkiv20]

ty ferguson I haven’t put the 4L60E in yet because I’m looking to put a T56 in there. When I put it in my 72 impala I believe I used the factory crossmember without modifying it. Not sure if you would have to do it for the chevelle

[@mr.g9756]

Will these mounts work just as good on 1972 Pontiac Grand Prix?

[@dkiv20]

Mr. G I'm not sure if it will fit a Grand Prix but if it is a "A" body frame then it should

[@jorgelloyd5638]

could you tell me what oil pan you used with those motor mounts

[@dkiv20]

Summit racing muscle car oil pan

[@jorgelloyd5638]

+BKChevelle 1972 how low did the oil pan hang from the crossmember ?

[@dkiv20]

+Jorge Lloyd 2 to 3 inches

[@tyferguson564]

Hey bro, what headers or manifolds did u use?

[@dkiv20]

ty ferguson haven’t gotten there yet... still waiting on it to come back from the shop.

[@tyferguson564]

Did u have any problem with the truck intake with the hood?

[@dkiv20]

ty ferguson no I didn’t

[@manhalt79]

did the instructions say how to notch the frame for the truck style compressor ??? any template or clear instructions if you remember ?? thanks man .. good video ...

[@dkiv20]

Mitch Anhalt I think I did have instructions on notching the frame, but once you have it bolted in, take a sharpee and trace the notch area on the frame. Take the mount off cut it and then box it. Should be straight forward....hope that helps

[@manhalt79]

thanks man ...

[@Mr_getinthere]

nice u got a part #

[@dkiv20]

Part#: UPI-4008-R Item: A-BODY LSX CONVERSION MTS. RED

[@dkiv20]

from summit racing

[@johnfasanelli8808]

nice job I'm gona do the same for my 70 gto if u can let me no what problems I'm gona run into

[@dkiv20]

It's really straight forward if you get a truck motor try dropping it in with the oil pan that comes with it you might be able to get away with using that and not having to buy a new one

[@moathalharbi9833]

thanks bro
