Engine is mounted finally

Well last night was it.

I finally after 4 sets of frame mounts, got the engine bolted in.

I had to dent 2 pipes on my headers but I sits like it should. Trans mounted with out issues.

Next will be the radiator fitting issues.

I will get some pic on in the next few days. I did have to dent 2 pipes on the headers for clearance with the power steering box.

I ordered them from Classic industries.

K702
Pg 463 of the latest catalog with the white 3rd gen on it.

I used motor mount 2285. And I did not have to change the rear cross member. My TH350 bolted up just fine. Almost in the same spot as the small block.

I will post pics sometime this week. I am super busy at work.
