Frame mounts can be bought anywhere. Just get them for an Iroc or Trans Am with 305/350. As for the clamshells to go on the motor, junkyard any of the clamshells will work from a truck, car etc etc just as long as they're V8s

If they're the clamshells from the LT1 they won't work, you have to use standard SBC clamshells.
