[BaadAssGremlins] Re: Pacer in CO Springs /pacer motor mounts oddities

["Eddie Stakes" <eddiestakes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Glen Hoag mentioned of the Pacer in CO here:

http://denver.craigslist.org/ctd/2234564950.html

"I'm fairly certain that the 1974 and earlier blocks will not fit the Pacer. Attachment 
points for the motor mount brackets to the block may also have changed."

I had hell of a time finding a Pacer six years ago for my custom woodie wagon, I could get 
regular old 232 and 258 at pick a parts for $89 whole engine, but none of them would fit 
as the motor mounts were totally different for Pacer. So had to find a Pacer to 
cannibalize for drivetrain. A 258 is a 258 and 232 is 232 until it is in a Pacer, they sat 
in at odd angle, was not motor mounts, was the actual block mounting was different. So 
bought whole Pacer and pulled drivetrain for my woodie wagon
