350 Swap into a 68

Post by Guest Sun Jul 03, 2011 3:08 pm

Though my van already has had a 350 swapped into it, the person who did it used the 250 mounts. Is there a crossmember with the proper 350 mounts out there or will I have to custommize my own?
Also, would a front- or mid-mount plate be a better alternative?

Flat top '57 Chevy mounts, homemade cross member witch bolts up to stock holes on the frame. It's in a '66 ford but I'm sure you could adapt to Chevy pattern. Engine is a 350 out of a '81 Capri. My oil pan may be different, but that's an easy swap.
