The truck motor mount bracket, does it matter if it's from a small block or a big block? The thick motor mount from a/6 duster does it matter what year? I think that the article said that the truck mount was for a '72 - '90. I'm rethinking a /6 car since the motor mount problem has been taken care of. I believe a friend of mine has a 8 1/4" that he put a posi unit in it along with a 3.55 gear ratio.
ok, so you could be teetering on the edge of the thought of making a decision about maybe commiting to a possible purchase just perhaps if the stars align etc. GO FOR IT!!!!
A big block bracket will not fit a small block.
thanks
thanks
I'm looking into getting that '72 scamp even though it's a/6 car. I figured it would be a good candidate for a 360 transplant.ok, so you could be teetering on the edge of the thought of making a decision about maybe commiting to a possible purchase just perhaps if the stars align etc. GO FOR IT!!!!
neil.
don't look into it, DO IT! you won't regret it and the help available here is invaluable
Looking at it this weekend. I think that it would be a great sleeper.don't look into it, DO IT! you won't regret it and the help available here is invaluable
neil.
even though previously you bemoaned how much it would be to do a V8 swap?
I know, I'm not perfect, sorry about that. This route I think that I can get exactly what I want and how I want it. Have a friend who has a nice heated garage
that's the thing, buy a cheaper but clean car that you can make exactly what you want. if you buy a car that's close but more expensive you'll end up spending money to make it 'the one' anyway. at least with that scamp you're out driving in it while you collect all the parts for the rebuild. as i said before the body is the most important thing, closely followed by chrome and interior. all the mechanical parts can be swapped out easily.
There ya go
Awesome car. That was great for him to help you like that. I do have a good friend of mine who has a heated garage that I can use
