Hi folks!  Viperman here with an e-body question!!!

"WHAT?!?!"  You say??!

This'll hopefully be easy.  Does anyone have pictures of the motor mounts for a BIG BLOCK motor that are still attached to the front frame/cross member?  I'm looking to see how the motor mounts are configured and if they might perhaps be the same as a mid-50's engine.  Kinda wondering if I can pull a 270 and more-or-less drop in a 383/400/440...

Not the greatest but maybe you can zoom them out to see better?

Well hey I replied EVENTUALLY...  :)  That looks like it wouldn't be super-hard to adapt to my front cross member, but I'll have to sort out an oil pan when I get to that point.  In fact, I wonder if an oil pump will be an issue...  I'll have to get back to this later!!

Did you guys break out the polish before photographing those engines?  :bravo:

If your wanting easy-stock motor mounts maybe consider 1973 76 charger gtx satellite 400 440 spool type mounts. Easy to make a bracket that welds to the crossmember or frame rails.
