I have the Spohn's motor mounts as well as his T-56 stuff (although they're not installed yet), and my opinion is if you're going to go with a LS1-related transmission, you'd better go with the same company motor mounts, i.e. Sphon MM and trans x-member/torq arm. Don't mix and match, otherwise you risk having things messed up because of the potential for different measuring points. I think most LS1 guys here run Sphon, as he has beefy stuff. If you want pictures of anything, let me know.

well this is a daily so i'm only running a 4l60e. i know my crossmember needs to be modified which i can do rather quickly myself but i don't have the time to mess with the mounts so i'm concerned on where to go as i've learned over time nothing bolts right in on these cars. just want to limit my fabrication as much as possible so those of you running th spohn mounts if you have any insights on what was needed to make it truly work i'd appreciate it and if you are running something else please share where you got it.

thanks.
