Transmission mount color: Black — Energy Suspension 3.1108G / Hawks ENS-3.1108G; Red — Energy Suspension 3.1108R / Hawks ENS-3.1108R. The kit supplies one transmission mount in your selected color.
The engine-side GM clamshell and bushing assemblies work with the LSx swap motor mount pad pair. The selected Hawks crossmember supports the corresponding transmission through the included polyurethane transmission mount.
The listed part numbers identify the separate component groups within this kit. SP-971 is the part number for one pair of motor mount pads, and 22179268 identifies each GM engine mount assembly.
Photo reference: The current kit photo shows a red transmission mount and one representative crossmember. The transmission mount color and crossmember supplied follow your order selections; crossmember shape varies by application.
- Verify the engine mount system, vehicle year and exact transmission application before assembly.
- Check the mounting areas and crossmember for damage, and support the drivetrain securely during installation.
- Test-position the engine, transmission and selected crossmember. Check tunnel clearance, exhaust routing, shifter position, driveshaft requirements and driveline angle for the build.
- Follow the instructions supplied with the transmission mount, including the required upper preload plate. Use the applicable fastener specifications for the installed components.
How do I choose the correct crossmember?
Select the transmission actually used in your LSx swap: T56, 4L60, 4L80, 6L80, 8L90 or TR6060. The table above lists the crossmember part number for each selection.
Which transmission mount is black, and which is red?
3.1108G is black and 3.1108R is red. Hawks identifies them as ENS-3.1108G and ENS-3.1108R, respectively.
Does one kit provide both engine mounting sides?
Yes. The kit supplies two GM engine mount assemblies and one pair of LSx swap motor mount pads.
Will every transmission option look like the photo?
The photo is a representative kit layout with a red transmission mount. The supplied crossmember corresponds to your transmission selection and may have a different shape.
Is this a stock-engine replacement mounting kit?
This kit is intended for an LSx engine conversion in the listed 1984-1992 Camaro and Firebird applications. Select it by the swap configuration and matching transmission, rather than the original engine alone.
