motor mount removal and tranny cable question

Okay I am switching out my motor and transmission. Im going from a efi 3560 to a carbed 383 with a built tranny. I need to know what do I have to do in order for my tv cable to be fine.

Also i tried remving the motor mount today. ALl i got out of it was it just spinning. Am i missing a nut or something to get it pulled?

The motor mounts are a piece of cake. Good luck with the rest.

There are threads that talk about the TV cable on the Carb and Transmission forums.
