Engine Mount Bracket Kit Gm LS Swap to C10 Truck

The Engine Mount Bracket Kit GM LS Swap to C10 Truck by Hooker is the critical foundation for one of the most popular engine swap combinations in classic truck building. When dropping a modern GM LS powerplant into a vintage C10 Chevrolet truck, factory mounting points don't align—requiring purpose-built engine mount brackets to secure the engine safely and maintain proper geometry. This kit solves that challenge by providing precision-engineered brackets that locate the LS engine in the C10 chassis without modification to the frame or engine block.

Hooker's brackets are designed to maintain correct engine height, angle, and lateral positioning—critical factors that affect driveline alignment, hood clearance, and vibration control. The kit accounts for the dimensional differences between the LS engine's compact construction and the C10's original longitudinal mounting configuration, ensuring the engine sits at factory geometry to preserve steering response and handling. Made from robust steel construction, these brackets handle the torque and vibration of high-output LS engines while remaining compatible with both carbureted and EFI variants, supporting engine weights up to typical LS displacement ranges.

Builders executing a C10 LS swap—whether for performance, reliability, or modern driveability—rely on this kit to eliminate guesswork during engine installation. The bracket set accommodates stock rubber mounts and pairs seamlessly with transmission adapters and motor plates, simplifying the overall swap process and reducing custom welding or fabrication. Installation requires basic mechanical skills and standard fasteners, making this an essential first step before wiring, cooling, and fuel system setup on any serious C10 LS build.
