Im swapping my 460 to a 6.9 into my 77 F250, but motor mounts are different. 460 mounts are different and where the the motor mounts mount are also diferent, what should i do to mount the 6.9????

 

use 6.9 mounts? you may have to modify but im not sure never done the swap

 

Do you have any pics of the motor mounts and the plate where the motor mount sits on???

 

My 67 is a 2 wheel drive and You can see some pic's of My mounts in My gallery. I'm doing a 74 right now also a 2 wheel drive I will take better pic's this time

 

To get a reference on how the mounts are for a 6.9, I have frame pics from my Cummins conversion from a 460 to the Cummins, using 6.9 plates.

 

Whats the measurement of the motor mount for the 6.9??that would help the guess wrk

 

Well, it actually is just a plate over the frame cross, while the 460 mount is a tower type mount after the cross.

 

1967 Turbo 6.9, how did you make those motor mounts for ur 67?? do you know the measurements??? please that would help me alot

 

As I do this 74 I will make a print. I didn't write any of it down on the 67 as I normally have to make changes later but I must be getting better at it in My old age. LOL
I've got the engine out of the 79 parts truck and a good start at pulling the 6.9 out of the 86 yesterday.
I'm taking Mom out to diner today for Mother's day (just a reminder for all of You it's next weekend!!!) if I get back in time I'll have the 6.9 out to day.
I'm using the C6 so that end is a bolt in. The truck has factory AC so clearing that is the only concern.

 

Ok thanks!! well keep me posted on your project, i cant wait to finish my truck, well now im just cutting my firewall to fit the Allison AT545, its a 4 speed auto

 

This is the part I'll be interested in. I have 3 allison 545s, 2 for Cummins 1 for a Volvo truck.
George D. has one for an IDI.

 

A VOLVO now were getting worried. lmoa
Is the 545 direct or overdrive.

 

I never owned the Volvo, only the trans., they are interchangeable.
They are 1:1 drive, no overdrive.

 

I cant find motor mounts for my 6.9 diesel!!and i also see in other motor mounts pictures that they have a metal bracket then the rubber motor mounts attach to that, where do i locate those two

 

I think your talking about the diesel motor mount plate... the idi had a plate that was bolted to the x-member... the motor mounts bolted to that... u can probably find them at a wrecker....doubt it will bolt to your 77 frame but it might with a bit of work... hope that helps
