Most of us just move the right side mount pad forward, no need to go searching for another mount.

but when you want to do the job properly it is always best to use the proper parts if available and the motor lines up a lot better

I had good luck in a junk yard. Quick and easy.

I'm accustomed to starting with rectangular tubing and ending up with a frame that goes around in circles really fast. Adapting that mount is a 30 minute fabrication job.

so it is just more than moving the mount forward. not everyone is suited for fabricating things
I have also seen some cobbled up affairs there

I found a pair of used Perch's. Tanks for the feedback it will be good to use the correct part.

The passenger side spring perch for a 292 is different than a v8 or smaller six cyl perch. moving it foreward does not make it fit.
