who is using clamshell style motor mounts??

I like the clam shell better than the factory stands. I remember reading somewhere they are fairly easy to use on these trucks. Is there a write up on how to install them, basically I need to know where I should place them for my small block to sit in there correctly without having the motor sit to far back or forward. Pictures always do me best.

It is either in the FAQ section or the tech tips section. Go to the top of the page, click home the go to the upper left hand corner under the banner and click there it will take to to either one you click on. If you haven't been there you got to go anyway just for the info. Jim

The bolt pattern on the clamshell style frame stand will not bolt correctly in the small block position. When you install the frame stands it will set the small block 1-1/4 or 1-1/2 rearward in the big block position
