Motor mount position for HEI clearance
OK guys, question for ya's
Our 71 K10 came original with a 6 cylinder and the SM465 4 spd and NP205 the PO changed it out to a 283... We have put in a 350 and are still using the SM465/NP205. The cab is off the frame now for a frame up resto. My question is, should the motor mount towers be in the front set of holes or the rear holes to have clearence for an HEI distributor with a 350? It is currently installed in the rear holes (no cab yet, remember) and I have about 6" +/- from the clutch fan we used and the radiator. I do not have a shroud for it yet to check clearance. The rear tranny cross member is bolted in along with the transfer case torsion mount, so I think I am OK. But I remember reading somewhere about HEI clearance issues with the firewall, maybe here, dont remember. sorry for the book version, never could keep things simple ![]() Can anyone clear this up? thanks, chas
