Which Motor Mounts

[cgster]

Need to order some motor mounts from Oreilly so I can get it tomorrow. Anyone know the correct mounts to order for a 1968 C10 that has a 70s model 350 engine going into it. I see some, but they have short ones, long ones....just want to make sure I get the right ones. Thanks.

Here is how my current perch looks and and where the mounts mount on the block, just need to make sure im ordering the right mounts.

Check summit racing. You can get some polyurethane mounts for a good price. Just call them and ask what you need, if they sell the wrong ones you can send them back on their dime but they've always been correct when I ordered them. I have a set On my Blazer and Chevelle and they fit perfect.

Couldn't find it on O'reilleys but found them at auto zone Part Number: EM-2282 only 8.99

Thanks, I got them ordered. Now I need to find the bolts for the mounts, looks like they don't come with the mounts.

Just a grade 8 bolt will be fine, not sure what the center bolt size is but probably a 3/8

Center bolt is a 7/16 size.

Clean the threads and run the bolt in a few times before you install the mounts to the block. Usually there are rubber boogers down inside the threaded holes on the new mounts, and trying to work the bolt into a cruddy hole from underneath the frame stand with your fingertips brings the suck for even the most patient of men. It's much easier to clean it out while you still have it in your hand.

Thanks for the info. On the 3/8 bolts that screw into the engine block, would 1 inch be to long? I couldn't find anything shorter?

Going from memory here, 1 inch will work with a good thick washer. I usually get my 3/4 inch long bolts from Tractor Supply. They sell them in bulk, priced by the pound. You can buy and many or as few as you want easily.

Thanks, I'll try that. Think that would cause any header fitting issues?

X2 on tractor supply...they sell grade 8 & grade 5 by the pound. I buy all my hardware there & you pick it out yourself, don't have to wait for a salesperson.
