Well, I just went through this so I might be able to help. Big block factory style perches can be bought new (ECE sells them among others). Small block 2wd factory style perches (front holes in frame) can only be purchased used. Small block aftermarket tubular perches can be bought new from CPP,Brothers,etc. for around $200.00. 6 cyl factory style perches were used in small block 4x4 applications(rear holes in frame) but can be used in 2wd applications too(Hei a liitle close to firewall, but will clear). They also can only be bought used. You can buy the tubular mounts and they will work well, but will not appear factory, all depends on how much money you want to spend and what kind of resto are you doing. Hope this helps.
