Default mount and linkage question

Alright im getting ready to swap my LS in, and ive herd different things with mount manufactures. I have a set of Avid mounts i plan on running, and i also picked up a Hasport shift linkage. i just want to make sure that,

1) the mounts wont place the engine to far down = oil pan clearances
2) the shift linkage will work with the avid mounts placement?

i need to know before i go, swap it all in then get pissed that it doesnt fit right...

Well, for me I had to bend the front mount out of the way, take a mallet to where my alternator sits, and I ordered a custom shift linkage for swaps.. cant remember the website at the moment. Everything otherwise fits fine.

guys...read the post. i already have the parts. im not running a hackjob linkage. i have a real deal HASPORT linkage and AVID mounts. i just wanted to make sure they both will work with each other. i know i have to cut the front bracket and bash the frame rail...

anyway talking with some friends it seems its going to work just fine. ill eventually have feedback when i get the swap in.
