Motor mounts for 350 small block?
Anyone care to share their engine mount dimensions?
I will post a pic as my engine I think is too high. Need some advice please. |

Re: Motor mounts for 350 small block?
Because of the depth of the engine compartments in these trucks height is usually not a concern. Governing factor is clearance of the bellhousing and transmission to firewall, trans hump and any crossmembers near the tail housing. Ideally the engine fits with minimal clearance when the carb manifold is level, this puts the engine & trans at a slight angle downward.
I can't be much help as I am running the front mounts not side mounts. I set my mounting points by installing the engine and trans and fabbing the mounting plates accordingly. Are you running a stock frame, S10 or other front clip? All will have different parameters, stock frame is easiest as you can buy off the self brackets. Or set the motor with the mounts bolted to the motor and use flat plate or channel stock to make a transition to the frame. With the s10 or clip the mounts should be there.
