So I am looking at a few different engines to put into my 1949 1-ton. I have it narrowed down to a 292 or a 350. I know either way I will have to do some modifications (engine cradle for sure on both). I have the cradle ready to go in just waiting on my decision on the engine. My first question is how will I know where to bolt up the cradle on the frame and secondly at what angle should the engine set? Lastly if I went with the 292 and used a early 70's SM465 4-speed transmission will the stock transmission crossmember still be used or will I need a aftermarket transmission cradle?
