I have a set of 71 stands, and 72 stands. $160 on the 72s, and $100 on the 71s shipped.

PipsC10 · 08-10-2009, 03:24 PM

what is the difference between the 71 and 72's. I have a set that came with a 72, but I am not sure if it was an original BBC truck.

my67chevytruck · 08-10-2009, 04:10 PM

FYI, the attached pics are '72 only BBC mounts

**too much stuff** · 08-10-2009, 09:51 PM

First pic is 72 style, and second is 68-71...

PipsC10 · 08-10-2009, 10:48 PM

thanks guys, mine are 68-71.

Wildstreak · 03-08-2010, 05:32 PM

which are the better set to get when looking to convert to bbc?

my67chevytruck · 03-08-2010, 05:55 PM

either one will work fine as both were made for BBC... iirc the 68-71 bill bolt right up, the 72 only will require drilling a hole on the xmember as it has 4 mounting points vs. 3 . someone will correct me if im wrong.

**wancosc356** · 03-08-2010, 05:56 PM

I also think one sets rubber mounts are more expensive than the others. Might wanna look into that too.

**leddzepp** · 03-08-2010, 08:41 PM

It's a trade-off.....The 68-71 rubber mounts are expensive, but the towers are less. The 72 rubber mounts are cheap, but the towers are more.

**Classic Heartbeat** · 03-08-2010, 09:14 PM

You shouldn't have to drill any holes for the 72s either. You already have 2 holes drilled in your crossmember. 1 for the small block frame bracket and the other for the 6 cylinder one. The 72 Big Block frame brackets utilise both of those holes. WES

Duncan and son · 03-08-2010, 09:57 PM

Dan after all the dust clears if you still need correct 72 engine stands we have a nice set with new mounts and all the mounting bolts for $200 plus shipping which should be less than $20.
Let us know...Paul and Jason

68lowburb · 03-08-2010, 10:30 PM

73-87 chevy truck mounts will work on 67-72 with drilling the one hole and are easier and less expensive to get have done this a few times with no problems also do not have to be for a big block ,small block towers will work too
