Description
Engine Conversion Bracket. The Engine Conversion Bracket Kit, LS is designed to facilitate the installation of Chevy LS series engines into a vehicle originally equipped with a small block Chevy V8. It positions the engine in the factory chassis location, ensuring proper alignment and compatibility with existing mounts. This product is essential for enthusiasts seeking to upgrade their vehicle's performance with LS powerplants while retaining stock chassis components.
_x000D__x000D_Construction And Appearance. The kit includes frame mount plates, rubber pads, and mounting hardware, all finished in a temporary black shipping paint for protection during transit. The bracket is fabricated from sturdy materials to ensure durability and is coated in black paint for corrosion resistance. Rubber bushings provide dampening and help minimize vibration and noise.
_x000D__x000D_Installation. Installation is moderately straightforward for experienced mechanics, though the use of motor mount shims may be necessary to achieve proper engine height and alignment. The process requires no drilling if used with factory chassis and recommended hardware, simplifying the retrofit process.
_x000D__x000D_Application. This bracket kit fits specifically the 1955 to 1957 models of Chevy Bel Air, 150, 210, and Nomad. It adapts the LS engine to the factory small block Chevy chassis location and is not compatible with clam-shell mounts used on later models.
