header & motor mount pics
Hopes this helps someone, I used the tubular motor mounts from Brothers & flotech headers for the bbc swap,they fit good,the driver side has about 1/4" clearance on front header tube & the pass side you could throw a full grown house cat thru & not touch a thing.
Flowtech#31530 ceramic coated,$229.99 from Autozone Mounts,,anchor part#2267 from O'rielly's auto parts $8.00 each tubular stands from Brothers #I forget? They do hang down below the frame about an 1.5" though,may have to go to a taller tire on my truck,it's lowered 3&5 with 255/50/17 nitto's. Jon Last edited by TraderJon; 01-04-2007 at 07:43 PM.

How hard were the tubular mounts to install?

Re: header & motor mount pics
Didnt have to drill any holes,bolted right in,I shoulda mentioned it's a 72 frame,with 67 sheetmetal, I think the original 67 frames are not carved out at the motor mount area,there straight & will interfere with the stand mounts.
Also learned the hard way,leave all the bolts loose till you get the trans mount pad stabbed in the hole,gives you some wiggle. Jon |

Re: header & motor mount pics
I appreciate you sharing this, I bought a set of flowtechs from summit for a 72 big block truck to go in my blazer. Now that you said they hang below the frame 1.5" I think I will need to get some diffrent ones.

Re: header & motor mount pics
I have a 67 doing the BBC swap in. Which holes did you use to mount the towers in? Also what is the white stuff under the upper tower mount?
Thanks |

Heres a pic,It may even hang lower than 1.5",,I always go by the collector height,usually thats the first part to drag the dirt? Now that i think about it,,thats a 3' collector. Jon Last edited by TraderJon; 01-04-2007 at 09:09 PM. |
