LT1 in 70 Camaro?

I know it is possible to do this, but i was just curious how much was involved. Besides the motor, tranny, and wiring harness what else would you need. Im guessing you would need new motor mounts, but do they sell those or would i have to find someone to fab some up? I have a 70 RS camaro, and i love the lt1. I just figure the combination would put a **** eating grin on my face... Also would it be wise to go with an lt1, or would the almighty ls1 be a better idea??? I saw the hotchkiss 71 camaro and it was very impressive... i would like to keep the cost down (stock motor/tranny for now), so im just kinda wondering how easily either could be done???

if you don't use the A/C , you can use the stock SBC mounts no problem(with A/C, might need a little clearancing on the mount and crossmember), you can use any trans , slightly different things needed for some, nothing big, biggest things are wiring and EFI fuel system

If you have a stock engine wiring harness there are companies that will fix a harness and make it if into any car.
There are about 300 to 500 bucks.
I had all the web pages on my hard drive that died.
Just do a search on google.
I hope I have been some help.
