heres some food for thought...

when I swapped my 258 for a 360 I used the mounts that were on the 
360...which came out of a CJ...I cut the studs off of the 
mount...bolted them to the block, bolted up the trans...and set it on 
the x-member...then I leveled the motor...marked the center holes in 
the x-member on the mounts...pulled them off and drilled a 3/8" hole 
though them...ran to the ACE and got some 3/8" x 3.5" Grade 8 
bolts...knocked them though the rubber in the mounts...put a nut on 
the back side and used an impact to run'em down...never had a single 
problem outta them...and people still don't believe it was like 
that...

if you look in the pics section my car is in there...Bart put up pics 
of the motor and some of it in the car...that is how both of those 
motors were in the car...and I ran it into the 13.80's that way...


the only reason why I changed was cause I was swappin motors so much 
and I wanted to see the difference from how I had it to how it was 
supposed to be...
