DSE LS Engine Mount Kit - Factory Subframe (060401DS) - 1967-1969 Camaro / Firebird / 1968-1974 GM X-Body
Put modern LS power into your classic GM without turning engine placement into a guessing game. Detroit Speed Engine Mount Kit 060401DS is engineered to install a GM LS engine into the factory front subframe of 1967-1969 Chevrolet Camaro and Pontiac Firebird models and 1968-1974 GM X-Body applications. The system positions the LS engine in the stock small-block location, providing a purpose-built foundation for a clean, properly located LS swap.
Detroit Speed supplies the major mounting components needed for the conversion, including left- and right-hand aluminum engine mount adapter plates, frame stands, polyurethane engine mounts, and installation hardware. The polyurethane mounts provide a durable connection between the engine and chassis, while the application-specific adapter plates and stands eliminate the need to piece together a mount combination from unrelated components. Detroit Speed recommends using the GM 1998-2002 Camaro/Firebird F-Car oil pan, GM part number 12628771, with this engine mount configuration.
