Derek,
I sent you a message a while back about putting a Lt1 and 4l60E out of an F body a my 69 Chevelle. I know you advised against it, but I ending up proceeding with the swap anyway. I have the motor and tranny in the chevelle, but came up on a couple snags. I bought a energy transmission mount and it appears to be positioning the transmission about 1/2 to an 1" higher that what it needs to be. The tranny is up tight against the floor with the energy mount in place. When you did the swap did you cut the crossmember mount off and reposition it lower or is there a low profile mount you can buy? Also what did you do for the driveshaft? My LT1 shaft seems to be about a 1' to short. I really appreciate any advice you could give me. I know you've already been through this swap so your knowledge would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Matt
