Those are great pictures Kevin... What did you use for the engine mounts??

Thanks:good For the 348 just a block of wood under the pan:D For the 454 I was planning on side mounts til I bolted the headers up and realized there's no way in heck. No room. Had to build front mounts out of 3/16" plate cuz no one makes front mounts for a BBC anymore. That i could find anyway. I'd probably use front mounts if I ever put a W in one of these cars. Are you gonna put a W in that 56 210?? Some more reference pics. Had to bash the #5 tube in some. Obvious reasons.

Speedway has the front style mounts, we got the 348 mocked up in the car with them now... I’ll get some pictures and post them later...
