Re: swapping an olds 455 into my 67 c10

i've had a 455 buick in my '72 short step for 5 years now . i used the frame brackets from a mid 70's small block truck (73-87 same) and the motor mounts and towers from the '73 riviera the motor came from . olds does use a much shorter/different mount and towers than buick but you get the idea
