Can anyone tell me what motor mounts to use for an LS3 Erod in the Gen 2 GTM?
I have tried the LS6 but one side does not fit right.
Also, when flipping the intake around, does anyone know what modification
or replacements needed of the "Valley" cover?
Thanks for any help, much appreciated.

You must move the oil press sender. I simple cut it with a sawzall and then tapped it for a pipe plug and used RTV to make sure it was sealed. Be careful not to oversize the hole for tapping so that the gasket no longer seals properly. ;)
You will then have to mount the sender somewhere else. I mounted it by the oil filter, but there may be a linkage interferrence issue if you are running FFR linkage and a Porsche gearbox.

Radkat,
I used the aluminum engine mounts from an 2005-2008 C6 corvette with Pfadt isolation mounts instead of the Corvette ones. Quite a bit stiffer than stock engine mounts, but smaller.

You'll be seen miles away with that colour. Nice choice! Do you have any more close-ups, and interior shots?

When you relocated the Oil Sender to the port above the Oil Filter, what kind of fitting did you use since the space is too limited for the oil sender to fit?
Thanks,
Radkat
