302 engine perches??
I'm looking for a pair of 302 2wd engine perches. Doing a 300 to 302 swap and the new motor is arriving at the end of this week! I was told 67-77 2wd perches should work.

Thanks

Jim

Transdapt 4562 mounts can be ordered through your local parts store. They are the motor and frame mounts and run roughly $100.

Have you or anyone you know used these? I just checked them out on summit racing and don't see how they would bolt up to the frame? Do these replace the perches and mounts??

Thanks again.

I just called the guy at the company that makes these. He said there not really a bolt on mount with out a lot of modifications. He said 302 swap are kinda rare and he recommended I find factory perches......


Oh well,, keep trying!

I have them in my '77. They come with mounting holes, I just had to drill the frame. Probably took 30 minutes to install them
