pwrsaire Wrench Fetcher P Joined: Nov 2008 Posts: 24 athens,georgia	I'm outing a 52 216 in my 49 gmc until I can get my 228 rebuilt... Problem is, the 216 is shorter than the 228 and the mounts don't line up. Has anyone done this type of swap before? Is there a kit out there for this? Please help...
