Just wanted to know that if I swap my L6 250 for a V-8 can I use the same Motor Mounts??? I have a 66 C10 fleetside. Thanks, Owen Owease@aol.com

The V8 mounts are not the same as the L6, but I have heard you can use them. The caveat is the engine position. The transmission position, driveshaft length and/or clutch linkage may need to be modified accordingly.

One things you may want to look at also if you are going from a 6cyl to an 8cyl is the radiator. The necks for the hoses are sometimes on the opposite sides. Also a 8 cyl capasity is larger .

You will need to move the passenger side Motor mount.
I am not sure but the C10 might have bolt holes for the mount in the V-8 position.
My '66 C20 didnt have the mounts so i just welded the mount to the frame.
I put a pic of my motormounts on my website.
