Simplify Your 1968-1972 A-Body LS Build with MuscleRods

High-strength steel construction ensures a precise fit in 1968-1972 A-Body chassis, eliminating extra modifications and securing your LS engine at the optimal angle for smooth drivetrain operation. Complete with MuscleRods hardware for 4L60E or 4L80E transmissions and precision engineered mounts, this Engine Swap Kit accelerates your conversion timeline, reduces vibration, and delivers reliable performance with USA craftsmanship for a streamlined LS conversion.

Complete MuscleRods LS Engine Swap Kit for 1968-1972 A-Body Chevelle/El Camino/GTO

Retrofitting an LS engine into a 1968-1972 A-Body Chevelle, El Camino or GTO often stalls at the fitment and alignment stage, and the 1968-1972 A-Body LS Conversion Kit solves those challenges with precision motor mounts and a tailored crossmember. It preserves the factory drivetrain angle to maintain smooth operation and reduce driveline vibration across the rpm range. Transmission fitment for 4L60E and 4L80E models is secured without altering tunnel walls, while generous oil pan clearance opens up intake options. Built by MuscleRods in the USA, this comprehensive Engine Swap Kit streamlines LS conversions with a complete hardware set and vehicle specific brackets for a straightforward install.

Precision Engine Mounts for Optimal Drivetrain Alignment

The custom motor mounts in this conversion kit are engineered to hold the LS engine and transmission at the original factory angle, ensuring power is delivered through the driveline with minimal distortion. By mirroring GM's intended orientation, these mounts prevent unwanted vibration that can accelerate wear on u joints and drive shafts. Their rigid design keeps torque forces in check, so the drivetrain operates quietly across the entire rpm range. Installers benefit from exact bracket placement that removes guesswork and eliminates the need for alignment shims. As a result, long lasting smooth performance is guaranteed from the moment you torque down the final bolt.

Seamless Transmission Integration with Purpose Built Crossmember

The transmission crossmember and outer brackets in this kit provide a direct fit for both 4L60E and 4L80E units without any tunnel modifications. CNC formed from laser cut steel, each piece aligns precisely with the A-Body floorpan, allowing unimpeded mounting and instant engagement. Generous clearance beneath the oil pan accommodates taller aftermarket pans and a wider selection of intake manifolds without interference under the hood. The included polyurethane transmission mount and spacer set isolate noise while absorbing engine movement, preserving cabin comfort. This thoughtful combination of components saves hours by removing the need for test fitting or chassis alterations.

American Made Durability with Superior Corrosion Resistance

All brackets and mounts are crafted in the USA from heavy gauge steel to deliver exceptional structural integrity under repeated torque cycles. Expert technicians use a TIG style welding process to guarantee uniform, high strength seams that stand up to road grit and weather. Every metal surface is finished with a factory applied powder coat, delivering outstanding protection against rust and contaminants. This robust build quality gives users confidence that their conversion will endure daily driving and extreme conditions alike. Backed by precise manufacturing tolerances, the kit's components consistently mate without clearance issues or misalignment.
