Motor Mount Tower, do you recognize?

[DWC]

Hi All,

While in the process of my 700r4 swap I thought I would correct a few other problem areas, you know how these projects snowball. The PO. did some things I wasn't happy with, one being the way the passenger side motor mount tower was attached. Someone had drilled some new holes and bolted up this tower. The odd part was the upper flange on this tower was on the bottom side of the frame rail, not sitting on top. I never quite understood why but I thought I would correct this, well now I understand. When you sit this mount on top of the frame rail and align the holes there is no way the bottom hole will line up on the crossmember. Actually no combination of holes align from the frame rail to the crossmember. Also the engine is not even close to the mounting pad.

My question is this the correct passenger side V8 small block tower for a 66? It looks quite a bit different than my driver side tower. I would assume they would be symetrical. I'm guessing it's a passenger car mount, the 283 came from a car (so I was told).

Thanks for your help, Dave
