BBC pics PLEASE!!!
Im about to drop my 2000 model 454 into my truck and I was hoping all of you great guys who have done this can send me some pics of yours. It dosent have to be the same model just a BBC in general. Im trying to decide how to do my motor mounts and if i want to keep the serpantine system and such things like that. Ive done alot of research on the mounts and more than likely im going to just order a set from performance or someone like that. All pics would be welcome and greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Terry J

Re: BBC pics PLEASE!!!
Just buy a set of 73 and up frame brackets, clamshells, and the c clamp looking motor side of the mount. The 72 and 73 are similar enough that it'll work fine, if I remember right, you'll need to drill a couple of holes. Now then, lets move onto the good stuff, where to put the engine?! It will fit right where the SBC sits, or move it just a hair forward to give yourself valve cover clearance and room for an HEI. Want to run sepr set-up (I would!), just leave the BBC in the SBC location, and buy a small capped distributor, that simple. I have a 454 in the stock sbc location on my 4X4 Blazer, the hei touches the firewall just a hair, and only because to time is perfectly the one plug terminal lines right up with the firewall and touches just a bit.

Re: BBC pics PLEASE!!!
I just got my Tubular mounts in from Performance Online. They look sick. They move the motor fwd an inch to clear the firewall with HEI's. Cost me 2 bills but well worth it IMO.
