Patton My Machine | | | | | Joined: Aug 2006 Posts: 237 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Aug 2006 Posts: 237 | The perches are the same for the 64-66 Chevy trucks I am pretty sure. We took a 250 out of a 1965 and dropped in a 350 back when I was a kid and only purchased new motor mounts. So. You will just need to get the right motor mounts for the truck. They have one bolt that comes up through the perch. If your using he same bell housing and stuff you should be fine. As you know the bell housing should have mounts that sit on the cross member too. My 64 has the same perches as the 65 long bed(parts truck) I got a couple years back with the 6 cly.
I am not sure about the GMCs and not real sure about the 60-63s.. We have a 1 ton 1960 chevy that we put one of those (1965)GMC V6s in. I don't remember changing the perches... But that was 3 years ago now.
With the way gas prices are I would fix the V6 up myself. Of course you may be wanting a hotrod or something. I am not a 350 fan unless you have like a 4 bolt main block or something. I think they made most of them out of recycled metal in the mid 70s. Maybe I just got the ones made out of coke cans or something.
Let me know if I can help. God Bless...
Godbless..

230,250 or 292 were the production I6 engs in 65. the oly eng mount that will not work for you putting ina v8 is the passenger side eng tower from a 292 I6; all the rest will work
