GMC 4X4 V-6 Engine Mounting - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

BobS · 07-29-2008, 11:35 AM

Does anyone have a pic of how the V-6 mounts into the frame of a 4X4? I'd like to know if it's the same as for 67-69, I'm looking for a crossmember and motor mounts to convert a small block truck to a V-6. Thanks!

I'll try to get some for you tomorrow. It may be tough getting good shots of them. There is no forward engine crossmember on mine, but one under the bell housing. Is that the one you mean?

I was wondering if there was one up front where it would be on a 67-72. I'll take another look at the NAPCO and compare that with your pics when you get them, maybe the NAPCO uses the same motor mount setup as the production line 4X4s.

Just mailed em. Did you get them?

BobS · 08-06-2008, 10:29 AM

Yep, here they are. They're similar to the ones in my 65 NAPCO but mine bolt in. Thanks for sending the pics!

Did you get the pics I sent Bob?

The one I have looks a little different than the ones in the above pics

BobS · 08-08-2008, 09:48 PM

Yes, I did, thanks for sending them. Your motor mounts look different and you have an actual crossmember as well. I wonder if it depends on the year. Yours were from a 1960, right?
