390 swap
By Jerry Maloney - 11/24/2005 10:28:12 PM; IP 64.136.49.226
I am trying to install a 390in my 67 mustang with a 4 speed. The problem is that I had to put a new front clip from the firewall forward on the car as it didn't come with one. Now I have dropped my motor in and the equalizer bar won't line up. I have the correct 4spd transmission crossmember and big block equalizer mounts. I also purchased big block motor mount frame brackets from ebay, just to find out that there is no such thing, they are the same as the small block brackets I alraedy had! I have heard that I need to drill new holes in the frame where these brackets mount. How do I locate the mounting holes? Thanks for your help!
