Re: 68 chevy pickup sbc to bbc swap ?? mounts
Welcome to the board 1968. GM never put a BB in a 67-72 4x4 so you will have to use what you've got for mounts. The other problem is the firewall will be tight. Some people hammer the firewall, others use a body lift for clearance.
But it has been done many times.

Check out my build thread. I used the small block mounts but had to shoved the driveline back 2 inches which caused clearance issues with the transfer case and the floor.
Good Luck, It can be done. |

Looks like I would be better off keeping the small block
