Need v8 motor mounts - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I am looking for v8 motor mounts.
The ones that attach to the block.
I have the rest.

sdmahr · 09-30-2004, 12:23 PM

They are about $7.00 at AutoZone or any other parts house.

Ichevyluvr · 10-02-2004, 12:18 AM

Sorry I meant the ones that mount on the front of the block. beside timing chain cover.

DennyB · 10-02-2004, 10:09 AM

Like this one, yes?

john j · 10-02-2004, 07:34 PM

Denny how do you support the back of the engine? Are you running a manual or auto? I realize the powerglide has the mounts up front and i believe the manual's do also. If you use a t350 it mounts way back. Can you use a mount off the trans bell housing as if in a stock car? johnj

Ichevyluvr · 10-02-2004, 08:59 PM

Yes! those are them what a sweet motor!!!!!

DennyB · 10-03-2004, 01:20 AM

That is not my truck fellas. I probably should have stated that.
This truck was at a local show a couple weeks ago. I'm not sure what the rear mounts are. I sure someone will chime in for you though. Mine is sitting on a 71-72 chassis now so all the mounts are changed. I will be setting it on a 4wd or awd chassis.
The truck pictured was very clean with few modifications. With the air breather on the front of the intake it could be the stock 283. I'm not sure though.
This truck still had the sraight axle under it too.

Looks like the ones from a 55-57 car are the same also.

john j · 10-03-2004, 02:19 PM

I bought mine from www.brotherstrucks.com you can also check them at www.chevyduty.com. Just remember you have to support the block at the back also. johnj

ljbear · 10-03-2004, 09:56 PM

I may have a set, but won't be home until Monday morning. If that's not too late I'll check and let you know.

rico_bob · 10-05-2004, 09:49 PM

DO NOT! I REPEAT --- DO NOT USE A 350 or 400 or 700R with the block mounted at the front! You will crack the tranny case or worse! You must support the trans at the bell area! My two cents worth! rico_bob

Ichevyluvr · 10-05-2004, 11:03 PM

I have a bell housing out of a 58 pontiac with a v8.
I am keeping it manual. I was thinking a 5 speed out of a camaro but didn't know it would work or not.

rico_bob · 10-05-2004, 11:18 PM

we sell the mounts if you still need them.

Ichevyluvr · 10-05-2004, 11:58 PM

rico_bob · 10-06-2004, 06:18 PM

PM 'd you. rico
