Anyone know if the motor mount towers go in a different location on a Big Block vs. Small Block truck?(well actually Blazer)noticed theres no extra holes in frame for moving trans around.

i never noticed any modifications on the front rails of the '76 454 truck I cut up, i saved the motor mount tress and mounts off that truck just in case. difference may just be in the trans mount style application?

There are only 2 locations for the frame mounts. They are labeled "6" and "8". Now that you have the crossmemeber cleaned up, it should be visible.

I dropped a 350 in the place of my 454 about a year ago and it was a bolt in. Did not have to move any mounts. I went back to the 454 around 6 months later. No power. This was in an 82 Crewcab.
