86 Z28 LS Swap

Sorry for another question on this subject, I have searched for weeks now and have not come up with a clear answer to my questions.
1986 Z28. Have a 2005 LQ4 to install with a turbo 350 trans. I want to keep the stock K member and use solid motor mounts.

What do I really need to buy? mounts, oil pan etc. to make this thing fit.

Thanks in advance,

Re: 86 Z28 LS Swap

I got the Holley motor mounts and the 302-2 (I think) oil pan. The oil pan that's deeper in the front and shallower in the back (302-1 I think) is too deep in the front and will not clear your steering center ink. Pair the Holley motor mounts with the corresponding tranny mount.
