Never made a GSR girdle fit an LS but why not go with a five point ERL or Z10 girdle?

If you must use the girdle, Get the Golden eagle one and take your block to the machine shop along w/ your LS main caps, main bolts and the girdle and tell them to align hone it for you.

Use gsr main caps along with the girdle and have the block align honed. That is the best way to do it.
