My 2 cents.

I have a 350 w/ a 350 turbo hydro and a Blazer rearend in my '52 - 5 window 1/2 ton pickup. The engine and rear transmission mounts were bought from Chevy Duty and are 'bolt ins'.

The radiator stayed in the original position but I added a transmission cooling 'hairpin' and an extra row of cores for extra cooling because of the 350, California climet, and future A/C.

The only PITA (Pain In The A--) part of the conversion was re-locating the steering box from the inside of the frame to the outside to clear the exhaust manifold.
