[QUOTE="dynajeep, post: 675733, member: 7027"] After most of the wiring was gutted, croes pulled out the sbc and also the th400. I forgot to put the nut on the dipstick tube on the trans and also needed to bang out a dented trans pan (i drove it through the rocks with no skid) installed a new filter and pump seal and back in she went. We cut off all the motor mounts off the chassis and decided to start fresh. I should mention that Chris has a cnc plasma table in his shop, and he's an engineer so making brackets and tabs is super simple for him and takes minutes. So after a few hours we had the motor hung in the engine bay. Right away we noticed that the stock oil pan wasn't going to work with what we had for clearance to the skid plate so on the phone with Holley and they had a oil pan coming our way. Also right away we noticed the the exhaust manifolds that were sent with the motor were off a CTS-V and the way they exited it wasn't going to work. So we borrowed a sent from a buddy that come off his Vette and those wouldn't work either, they were going to exit into the front driveshaft. So a full custom exhaust was our only option.
