DSE LS Engine Mount Kit - Hydroformed Subframe (060404DS) - 1967-1969 Camaro / Firebird / 1968-1974 GM X-Body
Build your LS-powered classic GM around the engine position Detroit Speed engineered for its Hydroformed Subframe with the DSE LS Engine Mount Kit. Part number 060404DS is designed for 1967-1969 Chevrolet Camaro, 1967-1969 Pontiac Firebird, and 1968-1974 GM X-Body applications equipped with a Detroit Speed Hydroformed Subframe and GM LS engine. Unlike an engine mount package that retains the original small-block location, 060404DS positions the LS engine 1.5 inches rearward from the stock small-block position.
That specific engine location is an important part of the complete Detroit Speed LS installation package. Detroit Speed specifies a C6 Corvette LS2 or LS3 oil pan, GM part number 12624617, on the current 060404DS product page and requires this engine mount kit when using DSE 061001DS LS headers with the Hydroformed Subframe. Current Detroit Speed subframe documentation also identifies additional compatible oil-pan configurations for certain LS engines, so the complete engine, oil pan, header, accessory drive, and subframe combination should be verified when planning the swap.
