Motor mounts for 4th gen

Having troubles finding good info on some 4th gen forums I really dont know any... anyways I'm building a weekend/strip car out of a 1993 camaro, I am wanting to put a 1st gen sbc in it ect..... My question is Does anyone make motor mounts to do this and still keep stock K-Memeber? Also Will I have to cut the cowl and get rid of the wiper system??? Those are really the only questions I have if anyone can help me out... And would i be able to use sbc s10 swap headers or some 3rd gen camaro headers thanks.

LT1 and Gen I SBC mounts are the same.

Use 4th gen LT1 headers.

The motor mounts are the same, but the brackets that bolt to the block are different. The older blocks aren't going to have all the threaded bosses needed to bolt on the 4th gen brackets. I haven't seen a GEN1 SBC intake system low enough yet to fit under the 4th Gen cowl without modification.
