Hey guys, I have a 60 half ton. I’m doing the mental prep work for a crossmember swap. I currently have a 235 straight six and while I would eventually like a small block or LS, I’m in no hurry to ditch the 6. From what I can gather, 63 was the first year the L6 used “normal” motor mounts. I guess the previous years used the funky middle of the crossmember mount.
So has anyone swapped a later crossmember into a 60-62 truck and kept their straight 6? If it’s gonna be a pain to fab new mounts for my 235 then it seems like I should just go ahead and put the v8 in. Im sure I could get a beater small block for $500 to tide me over.
Opinions?
