    Question Motor Mounts for '39 Dodge

     



    I have a '39 Dodge D11. I just dropped in a 8 3/4" posi from a '73 Charger. Bolted right up, even the shocks. I just bought a 360 and auto tranny to go in the car. I may later on install a Volare clip, if I can find one cheap, but for now I want to install the engine and tranny in my stock frame. Does anybody out there know of anyone who makes mounts for this, or will I have to come up with something on my own.

    Fat man fabrications has a large assortment of mounts that will probably fit your needs. You will also need a rear transmission mount fabricated. When you install the 360 you will need to remove the hump on passenger side of firewall in order for the engine to clear as the heads are offset. The original steering on this car is preety good except in tight places. I have a 39 d11 with 318 auto 83/4 rear. Like to hear more about yours.
    You should be able to locate Fat Man on the internet.

    Thumbs up

     



    Thanks guys, I will have to check them both out. I have measured several times, and I don't think I will have to cut the firewall any. I think a can move the radiator to the front side of the radiator support. This will gain me about two inches, but I think I will have to have an offset neck put on the radiator top. I will check into this further when I get my engine home this weekend.

    Used to be a company around called Trans-Dapt. Not sure if they are still in business or where they adverise, but they used to offer mounts for all sorts of weird and common combinations.
