LS 5.3 4L65E in 84 Regal

[rrainey86]

Hi All. I posted up in the New Members section but thought I would create a new thrread here. I have been reading and researching ever since I purchased my regal and drive train last week. Now, Ive built engine and done swaps on other vehicles almost solely off forum knowledge and advice but it seems to be random as to which mounts work with which setup. Some people drop the truck setup in and change a pulley and other people are buying car accessories and expensive kits to make their motor work. I want to complete this in about a week once the old drive train is out, so I want to have the major componets before I begin. I said all that to ask, who has a LS in the Regal using all truck accessories and pan and with what mount?

Im looking at a 1" setback transdapt http://www.ebay.com/itm/Trans-Dapt-...ash=item2357adea91:g:eq4AAOSwNSxVSj3q&vxp=mtr

Would I need anything else in terms of mounts for these?

After crawling over the internet, Im planning on running the LS1 adapter mounts considering these http://www.ebay.com/itm/LS1-Engine-...ash=item3f54e3c727:g:g-UAAOSwiLdWBfh5&vxp=mtr

And from what I understand this Spohn mount allows the AC to clear without notching the frame. http://www.ebay.com/itm/361117142547?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

Would I need anything else to mock up the drivetrain?

The spohn mounts should bolt up to the factory clam shells correct?

Im only ordering the LS1 mounts to get the Poly inserts.

Anybody running the Spohn mounts know what I need to adapt the truck engine to them. Im looking at http://www.ebay.com/itm/LS1-LS2-LS3...ash=item3ce6697cc4:g:kawAAOSwqu9U2qUK&vxp=mtr
