The taller mounting plates will bolt to the engine and the crossmember. Unfortunately, they will not bolt to the engine and crossmember at the same time. You must use the shorter mounting plates if you plan on mounting a V8 to a Gremlin V8 crossmember.
I tried using the taller mounting plates. After I bolted them to the engine, I tried to attach them to the crossmember. The 401 was still on the engine stand and the crossmember wasn't bolted up to the car yet. Take my word for it.........get the correct engine plates.
