ASS Engine Mounts Volvo 240 – V8 GM LSx

Description

ASS Engine mounts for GM’s popular LSx engines in the Volvo 200 series.
Fits Chevrolet’s small block Gen 3 and Gen 4.

Very stable engine mounts with double bushings per side to handle these heavy duty engines with lots of torque.
The mounts are made with several longitudinal holes to easily adjust how close the engine comes to the torpedo wall/front carriage beam and to still be able to easily disassemble and assemble the engine in exactly the same position as before.

You need a custom oil pan. We have chosen to start from an oil pan that Summit Racing sells, item no. SUM-G3610.
There are also copies to be found on e.g. Ebay (see scaled image).
This oil pan is very low but still has a good oil volume.
Because it is so low, the engine is at a good height without the trough ending up under the front beam. It is also affordable.

You need to remove the front beam to make room for the oil pan (see picture), alternatively modify the oil pan or put the engine so far back that you need to remove the gearbox tunnel.
We sell a ready-made plate for this purpose (AS-001019-02). The depth depends on where in the brackets you put the motor.
The picture shows approximately the deepest you may have to cut out.

If you use a pickup engine, e.g. LM7, you can only use the high intake if you have a “beak-hood”.
Otherwise, you can take intake from a car with a V8, for example from Corvette or a pure custom intake.

The steering column ends up near the exhaust ports on the driver’s side. If you want to drive without a turbo, slim headers are needed, e.g. cast which are available from slightly different manufacturers. In the case of turbo conversion, the pipes are usually pulled forward instead, and then there is no problem.

Bolt on gearbox beam for GM’s gearboxes can be found here (AS-002008-01).

The brackets are made of 5 mm high-strength steel plate and are zinc-iron chromated and black-passivated.
A set of fasteners consists of: fasteners incl. bushings and all screws/nuts needed for assembly in beam and motor.
