LS1 Custom Modified FD Stock Front Subframe

Anyone ever modified their stock FD front subframe to fit an LSX Motor?

I realize you would have to cut the very back of the front subframe to fit the LS1 oil pan, then you would have to weld in some bar stock, for bracing, directioned diagonally to the rear most mounting point to triangulate the front subframe... someone must have tried this...

Sorry I tried searching, but couldnt find anything about a customized stock front subframe.

I understand the urge to rethink the subframe but the work has already been done. Current options are pretty good and IMO, no need to reinvent the wheel.
