I read a few of the posts that involve the LS1 swap into a C3. I am looking for motor mounts that move the motor 1" forward. I am using a T56 so I would like to get shifter close as possible to centered in the console. Those that have done the swap what mounts are you using? Links would be appreciated? I did search and I did read but some said this and others said that... so i thought i would ask. thanks.

You are talking about the adapter plates not the motor mounts. The mounts are standard mounts. There are a lot of different sources for adapter plates these days so they should specify the offset. It isn't hard to design your own offset shifter to locate it anywhere you want in the console.

If you are building a custom console you can locate the shifter in the middle if you prefer. I used a factory Hurst shifter, did some measuring, and cut a plate for the offset needed for the stock location.
