Engine and crossmember question

Hey guys i usually hang out over in the 60-66 thread since i have 3 of them, anyways I'm looking at swapping the crossmember over from a 73-87...
Regarding the engines that come in the 73-87's, are there 2wd that come with the 454 in them? thanks guys!

Re: Engine and crossmember question

You mean the engine cross member ? All 2WD cross members are the same.

The crossmembers are the same, so are the engine stands that bolt to them...there are different engint mount positions...one for ALL V8's, and one for the six cylinder.

Re: Engine and crossmember question

As bigblock73 said, the crossmember is exactly the same regardless of engine size. The engine stands are have provisions for either 8 cylinder or 6 cylinder and cover any variation of either.
