Re: V8 engine mounts for a 62 c10

On my 61 I swapped in a square body front and used the stock mounts and just cut them down and welded a plate on top.

I did something similar on my '60. '73-'87 engine perches with clamshells. I used these for both by SBC and the LS engine setups in my Apache.

Did you cut from the top or bottom?

Re: V8 engine mounts for a 62 c10

They are in! I cut about 7/8 in out of the top and welded the top plate to the mount. A lot of work for something that should be already on the market. Thanks for all the help!
