I dont have a clue about the JTR kit and chevy motors...I always did v8 conversions with Ford 5.0 motors. Sorry no help here, however www.hybridz.org may be of help.

hey i have a book on it. if you are refering to the 2 aluminum or steel, 0.5" thick, then they are supossed to go between the front crossmember and the car body(frame rails). they lower the front crossmember (engine) 0.5" it allows for the engine to be in the setback position. hope that helps

I happen to have an extra JTR manual. If you want it let me know. I think they sell for $40+ bucks. I'll sell it to you for $10.00 plus $2.00 shipping. Just PM me if you are interested.

The JTR manual is almost a must for a V8 swap. There's tons of good info there.

So far as the mounts, the setback plates bolt to the block, and the spacers go between the mounts and the plates. The thicker spacer goes on the drivers side.
