I pulled the 207 out of the truck this weekend preparing for the engine swap. My front motor mount was completely crushed, with the destroyed rubber squeezing our the bottom. The motor plate was pretty much down on the crossmember. I read this tech tip which shows a picture of how the front mount is supposed to be. https://www.stovebolt.com/techtips/engines/motor_mount_front/installed.jpg

Roughly how high off the crossmember is a good front mount supposed to be, assuming proper clearances? I need to know this to figure out what I'm going to do for a front mounting solution (a 235 does not drop right into a '36) I posted about pulley sizes and interfering with the crossmember in another thread which directly relates to this. Plus in general I need to know where the engine should be properly sitting.

Thanks!
