Re: bbc engine mount stand/ tower????
is it for the 67 in your signature or a different year? Are you wanting to be factory correct? If not you can use 73-87 mounts if you don't mind drilling a couple extra holes in the frame. They look very similar to the 72 only mounts but they have two "bumps" on the top vs. 1 on the 72's.

Re: bbc engine mount stand/ tower????
So, you already got the $90-$100 mounts? That is the difficult Part. The stands can be found on the parts board. Become a supporting member and post a Want-to-BUY thread and you should have some in no time.
Most people don't use the 68-71 stands because the mounts cost so much, but sounds like you already bought them.
