Re: 48 Burb, bagged, 5.3, 20 year wait
Having the base of the "A" mount right on top of the engine mount bolts won't work because the support tubes extend through the base and are welded on both sides. I didn't want to compromise the strength by grinding the tubes flush.
Relieved the LS plate for clearance on the tubes and tacked the "A" mounts in place on the plates. After verifying positioning I will weld the "A" mounts on permanently.
Next up I plan to position the power train back in place and make a pattern for the frame mounts. Looks like it will be an inch or two behind the current ones shown above.
Thanks for stopping by!
