For engine mount stands this is correct. My car was a factory 307 car
and I had to get the other V-8 mounts in order to put a big block in
....unless I wanted to Mickey Mouse it and use 307 mounts (in between
the stands and the engine). There was no way I was going to trust big
block torque with small block mounts.
Now for BODY to frame mounts, there were an extra set that were used on
the big block cars. It's an option when buying body mounts.
I do see on the frame where those mounts would go up front. However, I
do NOT see where on the body they would mount to, unless the factory
welded on a special mount platform onto the firewall?
Anyone have any pics of those inside big block body mounts? I may opt
for it if I can be convinced I will need them with a big block in there,
and they are available in repro.
