Need help....Motor mounts not lining up???
Here's a couple of pics of what I'm dealing with. I'm trying to mock up my motor but the holes aren't lining up. Ece ls swap mounts going into a 67 that originally had an I6 motor. With these mounts I'm supposed to drill one hole in the cross member. When I line up the one bottom hole the mount sits too high from the top of the frame. I'm completely lost here. Your help is appreciated!

Re: Need help....Motor mounts not lining up???
Think I would email some these pics and verify all the info with ECE to make sure those are in fact the correct mounts. I would also try fitting them to the motor then lower them with the motor/tranny/drive line (if you have it) to see where your at...Might get lucky and have to drill three holes instead of one...?

Those are '73 & up mounts. They are not a direct bolt in. LockDoc

I have never used them. The only truck I have seen with them in cut a notch out of the frame so the top holes would line up and re-drilled the bottom holes in the cross member to match the mounts. I think he only used one bolt in the bottom. LockDoc .
