Frame eng. mounts?
Can the frame mounts for a 240 eng. be used if you're sawping a 5.0? Or do I need to get the frame mounts specific for a small block?
Thanks for your help guys.

The 302 perches not only are shorter than the six cylinder/FE perches, they also move the 302 back towards the firewall.
You can get the 302 perches from any '69-1/2 through 1979 donor truck that came with a 302.
If your truck is a pre-'69-1/2 model, you'll have to drill two additional holes (per side) in the crossmember to bolt down the lower ends of the 302 perches.
