Big block or Small block chevy motor mounts
I have an American Rails 32 frame. The car now has a 350 Chevy small block in it. IF I move up to a big block, I thought the moutor mounts and location of them would be the same as well as the transmission mounts. I just talked with Pete and Jakes and they think the big block motor mount locations would be different......
Can you guys help clear it up for me? I was told, I think on this forum that if I Pulled the small block 350 and put in a Chevy big block that the motor mounts and tranny mounts would all bolt right back up........32 Ford

The problem is clearance to the radiator as the bbc is longer

............. and clearance at the firewall and trans tunnel. The BBC is also 2 inches wider I believe.
