Looking for some info for my 57 frame

[Trucknut57]

I just picked up another frame and need some info on a few things.

First, I'm keeping the straight front axle and am installing a 5.3L w/auto. Question: is anyone else doing this and if so what are you using for engine mounts? Bought or home made versions? I've searched and all I find is pics of ones with MII's or camaro's, none with just the straight froint axle.

Second, Where are most of you guys getting your 5.3's from? I check my areas craigslist everyday and nothing. I have called most of the junk yards and nobody sells a complete dropout or they just don't have anything "that new", 2007 and up. Ebay is a joke and I check car-parts.com daily also.

Any help would be great.

Thanks,
Wess
