need help asap
doing the motor swap on the 230 to the 283 and the mounts on the engine are different. The mounts on the frame look ok as everyone has said, but the 283 was stripped with nothing and im not sure if the mounts will work. Any suggestions would be appreciated soon please. thanks guys
PS can you flip them? |

Re: need help asap
Are you using side motor mounts or the early front saddle?

Re: need help asap
there are the ones that bolt to the engine. and then there are the ones that go to the frame( kinda like a saddle i guess). Can just bolt the saddle to the engine?

Re: need help asap
No you need the rubber mount to bolt to the engine, which in turn bolts to the tower or perch. Not sure what year your truck is, but Napa has the following stock part for the 65 Chevy truck. They show the same part number for the 230/292/283/327:
