v8 motor mounts with s-10 swap?

[vintage_car]

rooster- I flipped them around and the engine is sitting where it is supposed to sit. There is a little over an inch clearance from cab to distributor. I had to notch the passenger side around the cast area the fuel pump attaches to. I have an electric pump, so I'm just going to put a block off plate on mine.

When i got my s-10 frame it had 4.3v6 mounts and after trying almost all options i've decided to use these mounts and it puts my motor about an inch or so from the firewall with little work. I will be using an electric fuel pump also and an vintage air front runner system. I'm glad you got the mounts to work for you i came real close to doing the same thing you did with the mounts i have.

I agree! About ready to install 350 in my '50 and am considering the Jags that run mounts - I like the adjustability aspect. Also looking at Ad engineering's mounts made specifically for this install. ADE's mounts are a little pricy but come with poly bushings... decisions decisions
