350 motor mounts
So I recently purchased a 64 short wide. Boy it needs a lot of work but $300 bucks was a good deal. At least I think. My problem is I got a good 350 I wanna put in but air transportation sure which mounts I need. Their no mounts on their right now so where can I pick up a pair? I'd like a new set. I don't really wanna get some of ebay. Thanks for any help

Re: 350 motor mounts
are you saying you don't have the frame mounts that hold the motor mounts.Well you might be better off then me i bought a 1964 short bed Fleet side for 2500.00 But the body is straight straight tail gate.But i hated the small window so i traded a 3/4 ton that was a camper special for mine I own both trucks but sold the truck a year later and he wanted the big window.
So i got my big window with my new cab and core bushing support bolted fore free YAA Here have a look this is before i had the cab swapped.Been driving a 1965 with a small window for 20 years wanted a small window for the short bed |

Re: 350 motor mounts
If you want to use the original style engine mounts, you will need the frame brackets from a '63-'66 with a 230/250 I6 or a V8, or from a '67-'72 with a 230/250 I6. The engine mount itself can be purchased at your local auto parts store. '63-'72 with any I6 or small block V8. If you can not find the frame brackets locally, check the '60-'66 classifieds here on the forum. These would be the easiest if you are staying with a manual trans.
If you are converting to an auto trans and want a better engine mount, you will need the frame brackets from a '73-'87 C20 or C30. Then you will also need the engine mounts themselves plus the upper part often referred to as a 'clamshell'

Re: 350 motor mounts
The K series engine mount brackets are a completely different animal.......4wd versus 2wd.
As I stated above, you want the brackets from a '73-'87 C20 or C30. Those will fit the early frames better than the brackets from a '73-'87 C10.
