Re: big block motor mounts

If you are talking about Big Block engine towers....they are NOT the same as small block towers.

Re: big block motor mounts

If you have a 67-71, 73-87 SBC towers will work nicely with very minor modification. If you have a 72, the towers are pretty difficult to find and pricey when you do. There is another thread going on about this now

Well, its on topic at least. There are a few options it should point out.

Re: big block motor mounts

I searched for several months before I found mine, your best bet is to keep your eyes peeled on the forum. Itll be a good oportunity to save your pennies for them

Re: big block motor mounts

The 73 and ups are very similar and work as the originals do and every 2wd 73-80ish truck has them, most wrecking yards give them away!
