Motor Mount Questions

I read the engine swap thread before posting this, but I need a few more specifics. I have a '72 350 that I plan on dropping in within the month. I need motor mounts but don't know if I should get the engine swap mounts with the adapter plate or if OEM mounts will work. I'm assuming that just getting OEM engine mounts (not the frame mounts) will still line up with the mounts on the K member. If I don't need an adapter plate that'd be awesome.

If they fit a stock V8 they'll fit yours.

Re: Motor Mount Questions

There are no adapter plates involved, unless it's a B-O-P 350, or unless you're trying to keep a transmission from a 2.8L.
