Nov. 29/19: We have decided to phase out this series of LS mounts and to focus on our LS250 kit, a universal urethane insulated kit with trim-to-fit frame plates. Please see related items.
A number of options are available to mount your LS series engine. From direct bolt-in to universal fit, Welder Series has your engine installation covered. Fits all LS engines.
LS engines all have the same engine mount configuration.
Adapter kits are supplied with all necessary hardware for mounting the adapter plates to the block. Insulators not included.
To use rubber mounts with LS166, the insulator will need to be spaced away from the adapter plate slightly. A washer or two will do the job. This is necessary because the rib on the engine side of the insulator ends just about between the top two mounting holes. On the LS166 plates, the countersunk hole shortens the relief slot.
Bolt-In, for stock Small Block frame mounts (LS150):
This kit has been discontinued.
Universal fit, for rubber insulators (LS104):
This kit has been discontinued.
Bolt-In, for stock Small Block frame mounts, moves engine back 1″ (LS166):
Limited Quantity.
Motor mount adapters for Chev LS engines to reduce the gap ahead of your firewall. The engine will be back 1″ compared to our LS150 adapters (or anyone else’s that mounts the lower insulator hole over the lower front mounting hole in the block). These 3/8″ thick steel plates are precision laser cut to adapt stock, early-style Energy Suspension urethane Chev insulators to the LS block (will also work with rubber insulators - see note above). The large slot provides clearance for the reinforcing rib on the insulator preload plate. Energy Suspension wants the preload plate used! These adapters let you put an LS engine on the stock mounts that were on a side-mount small block frame. The motor mount insulators are not included in the kit price. The transmission mount might have to be relocated. The kit includes metric hardware to mount the plates to the block and imperial hardware to mount the insulators to the plates.
Every customer is different. You’re different from the next customer. That’s why they’re called 'custom'ers. There is no formula, no equation that will work with all of you. It takes a different approach to everyone to determine how best to serve anyone. Some people need videos, some people need descriptions. Some people need us to weld it together. Our approach has been, and will always be, to serve each of you where you are and to treat you the same way we would like to be treated. We officially opened the doors to Welder Series in 2005. That doesn’t sound like very long, because the product line has been percolating for over 40. Paul Horton began developing and building many of the parts we still manufacture when I wasn’t yet a twinkle in Dorothy’s eye. Thanks very much for your business and support over the years.

Note DW and Paul Horton at Welder Series absolutely rock and were quick, prompt, by far the best communication I’ve had with an online vendor in a LONG LONG TIME… (Sorry but their response time was bar none awesome). Very rarely do you find the level of dedication to a customer, communication, and a rewarding experience for both the buyer and supplier. I bought a pedal assembly a bit ago, and that experience automatically ensured that I will source Welder Series before I search for another vendor. Paul and DW have it together and will make a solution to your problem… and probably at the best price around to boot.
I have purchased a few of the products that Welder Series offers and been pleased each time. The products are as advertised and they ship in a timely manner.
I am also impressed with their customer service. I asked them if they had a brake pedal kit (mount, pivot, pedal, bushings, etc) for a right hand drive application. They did not have a kit per se but were able to put together pieces from their catalog to make one I could modify the Master Cylinder mount to make it face the other way (I had to cut the top off and weld it back on facing the other way, cheaper than ordering a one off part, and I don’t have a way to bend metal that thick, everything else fit up as intended). It worked as they described.
I just finished installing a Welder Series rear sway bar kit over the weekend. My all-steel ’35 sedan handled in the traditional “scrape off the running boards” way… even with a front sway bar. The kit went together nicely, everything fit perfectly and now the car goes around a corner 100% better… no more extreme lean. DW was a huge help in putting together a little bit different kit for me since I am using a tubular rear crossmember and also made some suggestions that really helped in the fabrication. You can depend on these guys… they are “for real” hot rod guys that offer really cool products. I’ll post a picture or two when I get the chance to put the car on a hoist for a better photo op. Thanks DW & crew.
