96 gmc motor mount swap

[HillClimber]

Converting my 96 4.3 to a 505 BBC and looking for some solid motor mounts. This is a drag truck project is why I am going to solid mounts. Only ones I have found so far are at auto fab but don't think I need that one with the step it has on the mount. I am thinking it's possibly for a 4wd. Thanks in advance.

When converting the 88-98 truck to a V-8 motor from the V-6 the stands the move the V-6 back so far into the engine bay need to be removed and regular mounts like any [normal] V-8 car or truck from the 70's up to the late 90's would have. You would put the V-8 mount in the Normal 3 bolt location just as if you were putting in a stock 350 just a lot more fun the way your going. If you do go that way you could do a semi rigid lower half and a solid top half to reduce the risk of broken trans cases. Jim

The solid motor side seems pretty straight forward and easy to find. Frame side is proving to be more difficult. I will broaden my search if they are all the same from 70's up. Thank for the reply.

Moroso 62610 these are for an 82-92 Camaro, I think you could make these work. out of the 2 fram mounts morosso makes I would think these would hav more holes that would line up. I plan on using these in my blazer build.

Theirs not many options for solid frame mounts, you could always run am motor plate. I think those motor mounts would be easier to make work then the other morosso mounts.
