Advice in parts selection
Ok motor will be back from the machine shop in a few weeks, time to get my swap parts together. I have read most the threads on here and was wondering after your all's builds if u may have went with different parts.
Going to order a K-member, motor mounts , T56 cross member best one for exh clearance and sub frame connectors for my 92 vert LS1 swap.

If you get a K-member with LS mounts, that solves the mount issue.
Hawks T56 crossmember offers the best exhaust routing possible.
Spohn subframe connectors tuck up nice, but the UMI support the front LCA mount better (bolt goes through boths sides of the SFC rather than just one).

Seem to hear the most complaints about the Spohn tubular K-member.
I haven't taken that step personally, so can't offer much beyond that.

Re: Advice in parts selection
Just installed a umi road race member. Fits great but not a lsx swap one. Then again my sbc isnt installed yet so not sure how well mounts are made
