5.3 swap motor mounts

[L92 OLDS]

OEM Nylon with Dorman factory fittings is very reliable, light weight and you'll like this....Cheap! In all seriousness, I highly recommend it unless you like to spend a fortune for heavy, expensive braided line with AN fittings and adapters everywhere with potential leak points at every fitting.

Your talking about nylon plastic hose with barbed fitting right?

What about coming from grand national sending unit what kind of lines or slice?

Can we see these holes you drilled into the engine block?

GPNX has posted a photo in the in the LS truck oil pan thread that shows an engine mount bolted to the side of the engine. In that photo, it looks like the mount is bolted to the factory engine mount holes in the block, but the mount is shimmed away from the block with washers Not necessarily the best option either, but I'm wondering if that photo is related to this thread. I'm a bit curious as to why he'll post photos of the oil pan clearance, but not of where he has supposedly drilled holes into the side of the engine block.

That was my old motor mounts I couldn't get to work right with truck oil pan. I have different ones now.

 

[clean8485]

Thanks very much for clarifying that. Any chance of seeing some photos of how/where you drilled holes in the side of your engine block?

 

[SoFloG]

So you got a whole new block without holes drilled in the side because the motor mounts didn't work? I hate to be so cynical but BS

At this point, due to the lack of proof of exactly what's been done, I'm beginning to think that this is a hoax as well.

Did you run nylon line from fuel rail all the way back to gas tank?
