I am building a 68 camaro with an Art Morrison front subframe. I have an LS3 with a Tremec T-56 tranmission in the car. Is there a special transmission mount for the T56? The stock chevy mount is too short, the holes wont line up to the transmission, and when i set it all in the car the transmission mount's holes dont line up with the crossmember. Make sense? Anyone have this problem?

Thanks for any input!

Yeah, something doesn't sound right. The mount is made to move forward and back as needed. What bell housing are you using?

Edit: are you referring to the tranny mount between the trans and cross member? I used an energy suspension mount and everything lined up, more or less.

Yes the trans mount and the cross member. It seems like the bracket thats welded to the crossmember isnt deep enough for me to bolt the energy suspention bushing (or mount) to the crossmember. I cant flip the crossmember because it is too high and my pinion angle will be way off if i did.

Also the holes is that trans mount dont match the holes on the transmission. Maybe i will have to post a pic. I feel like a nuckel head trying to explain this :lol:

Ok so i went to the Art Morrison website and looks at some pics of another camaro. Turns out the tab on my crossmember appears to be welded on upside down according to the pics from their website. I thought i was going crazy for a minute. Good thing i have the technology to fix it myself :D

Sorry for the silly question, thanks for the help guys!
