V8 engine mounts for a 62 c10
Attachment 2382991I just did the 78 crossmember swap with CPP spindles and I’m looking for the correct engine mounts that will fit. My friend gave me a set of CPP engine mounts but they don’t seem to fit right. Seemed a little tall. I’m doing the research to see what’s the best fit and what I need to use. I’m still running the grand bell housing crossmember with a 62 V8 bell housing. Attachment 2382991

Re: V8 engine mounts for a 62 c10
I have 64 X member in my 62 and I used the 67 - 72 motor mounts. They bolted to the frame without the spacer on top of the frame. I tried the tube type of mounts and they sat too high and they also needed a spacer on top of the frame.

Re: V8 engine mounts for a 62 c10
That’s what I needed. Where did you get them? Did you move your steering gear box forward? My drag link is real close and high on the x member. When I installed the x member the front two holes lined up so I went with that. How was your install?

Re: V8 engine mounts for a 62 c10
It has been a while since I bought them. I think I got them from Brothers (not positive). I used the steering box from a late 70's C10 and captain fabs mounting bracket. I have plenty of clearance for the steering components.

Re: V8 engine mounts for a 62 c10
I have the engine mocked up with the 67-72 stock mounts. It seems to fit fine except I need to 1 in spacers I between the top of the mount and the frame. Once the ends are 45 and welded it should look fine. As you can see I also have plenty of clearance under the balancer.
