Having some trouble understanding my engine mounts for installing a SBC into my 1965. I understand the 1965 frame perches. Will the standard 1965 engine mounts attach to the SBC350? The mounts from the SBC that came out of a '79 are the more typical pivot bold style. So my only assumption is I take a set of 1965 generation mounts and attach them direct to the 350 and she will sit right on the perches? I have not tried to set the engine yet or I would know the answer i suppose Just trying to make sure I have the right goodies in hand. thanks!
Yes, are you running the stock rad shroud and are you using the long water pump, if so you`ll want to use the rear holes in the crossmember/mounts. If you use the short water pump with the shroud you need to use the three inch fan extension.
OK, so my assumptions on the engine mounts are correct. Thanks for the info on the fan shroud/ pump. Had not gotten that far in my planning yet.
I used a set of mounts out of a mid 70[s truck. Carce them in with a torch and fit them with a hammer. Then weld them out and your good to go. Actually it's a little more work than that but not that much if you know what you are doing.... Big Tim
