Engine swap mounting help
« on: May 16, 2016, 12:03:15 PM »
So I just picked up a new hull which had a blown ford 460 in it. I have a running 454 motor. Engine mounts appear to be in the same location (under the logs and then after the bell housing). Question is will the motor mounts line up? Any help and info is appreciated

Got any pics of what you got as far as mounts go? Take some measurements and see if the holes for the mounts will work out for the new motor. If that makes sense, I'll be meeting you tomorrow and could easily take a look at it with ya if you want

Get the 454 out already and put it in there. Best way to find out is to go for it. I already told you it looks fine silly.  Gets some degreaser and clean that bilge too
