1972 Engine Mount Towers/Perches
I recently purchased a 1972 F100. The previous owner swapped the engine and transmission to a later model 302 and automatic transmission. I have doubts the correct perches/towers are installed, how can I determine if the installed towers are correct for a small block V8? How can I determine if the correct transmission mount is installed? Any information and/or help will greatly appreciated.
