Complete Gen-V LT Engine Swap mounting Kit for the 1988-1998 C1500 Rear Wheel Drive Truck. Includes Premium Engine Mounting Brackets, Isolators, Clamshells, and Mounting Hardware. Hooker BlackHeart application-specific LT swap engine mounting brackets eliminate the installation guesswork and compatibility uncertainty that comes with using universal swap plate mounting methods. These mounting brackets are available with forward-bias, or rearward-bias engine mounting positions that optimize powertrain placement based on user-selected transmission, transfer case, and driveshaft compatibility/retention priorities. The factory transmission crossmember is re-used with these mounting brackets (cost savings since driveshafts and crossmember are re-used). Off-Road racing applications can use Hooker BlackHeart BH13272 LS swap headers.

Features:

  • Premium Engine Mounting Brackets – for Two-Wheel Drive 1/2-Ton Trucks
  • Premium Engine Mount Brackets are Used with the Included Isolators, Clamshell Mounts, and Bolts
  • The Modular Design of the Premium Engine Mounts Provides Expanded Accessory Drive Component Compatibility and Allows Future Engine Changes from GM LS to Gen-V LT by Merely Changing the Engine Mount Clamshells
  • Fore/Aft Engine Mounting Engine Position Options – Optimizes Powertrain Placement Based on User-selected Transmission, Transfer Case and Driveshaft Compatibility/Retention Priorities
  • Forward-Bias Engine Location Provides Enhanced T56 Magnum Transmission Fitment and Engine Accessory Drive Compatibility in 2WD Applications
  • Rear-Bias Engine Location (Stock Bellhousing Plane Position) Allows an Existing Transmission and Driveshaft to Remain Undisturbed, if Desired
  • Compatible with Hooker Blackheart BH13272 LT swap Headers for Racing and Competition Applications
  • Factory Driveshafts and Transmission Crossmember are Re-Used with Engine Swap
  • Fabricated 1/4" Steel Plate Construction - Provides a Strong, Durable Mounting Solution
