BB engine mounts
Looking for suggestions on mounting my BB into my 68 frame, what is everyone using and can you use small block towers?

Re: BB engine mounts
68-71 towers ($125-ish for a pair) can be used with sbc mounts which are relatively cheap. or 72+ setup which is more expensive. my understanding is that sbc towers won't clear the exhaust. not sure about aftermarket options.

Re: BB engine mounts
You CAN use the small block stands, they just do not fit right and the headers will not clear them. Makes for a cobbled install. Thanks, Fred.

Re: BB engine mounts
You can use 73+ mounts which will accommodate small or big block engines. I have 2 sets foe $50 each. This is a cheaper way than buying 67-72 bbc mounts
