WOD LT Engine Mount Plates (pair)
F021026
The WOD LT Engine Mount Plates provide a strong, weld-on foundation for mounting any GM Gen V LT engine into a custom chassis. Precision laser cut from 1/4" high-strength steel, these engine mount plates are designed to fit the entire LT engine family while giving builders complete freedom to fabricate custom engine mounts, tube structures, or boxed brackets that position the engine exactly where it's needed.
Unlike fixed bolt-on engine mounts, these universal weld-on plates allow unlimited flexibility for custom builds while maintaining the factory LT engine mounting pattern. Whether you're building a rock crawler, Ultra4 race car, rock bouncer, prerunner, hot rod, or custom LS/LT swap project, these are the same engine mount plates used in Wide Open Design's in-house chassis builds and proven under real-world off-road abuse.
Includes:
- (2) WOD LT Engine Mount Plates (Sold as a Pair)
Note: These are weld-on fabrication components intended for custom engine mount fabrication. Welding, mounting hardware, and final engine positioning are required.

FAQ
Why use weld-on engine mount plates?
Universal weld-on engine mount plates allow complete flexibility during chassis fabrication. Instead of working around fixed bolt-on mounts, builders can position the engine exactly where it's needed for proper weight distribution, firewall clearance, oil pan fitment, steering clearance, and driveline alignment.
Why laser-cut steel?
Precision laser cutting ensures every mounting hole is accurately located and every plate is perfectly matched. This results in easier fabrication, proper engine alignment, and consistent fitment across every build.
Perfect for custom chassis fabrication
These plates are designed to accept virtually any mounting style. Fabricators commonly weld DOM tubing, boxed steel structures, or custom brackets directly to the plates, allowing the engine mounts to be tailored to each vehicle's chassis and suspension design.
Built from real-world experience
These are the same LT engine mount plates used in Wide Open Design's turnkey chassis builds. They have been proven through rock crawling, rock bouncing, Ultra4 competition, and years of demanding off-road use where engine mount strength and precise placement are critical.
