I've purchased both Moroso and Dirty Dingo motor mounts to fit a 1999 5.3 into a 1993 4x4. Neither of these mounts comes even close to getting the engine into a position where it's getting remotely near the stock position of the transmission. I've been assured by both Moroso and Dirty Dingo that these engine mounts are good to place a LS style engine into the stock frame motor mounts with no modification. The 2" gap in between the transmission and the back of the engine says different. Has any one else had similar problems?
It is possible to move the transmission forward if you don't want it's stock mounting holes to match up to the cross members and you want to alter the extension dimensions of the drive shafts. However, I'm not sure why anyone would want to do this if the engine mounts are supposed to place an LS style engine in the "Stock" position.
