Re: 65 with cross member swap what perch?

With my 65 Gen IV 5.3 swap with square body crossmember I used P.O.L. frame perches. I remember they didn't fit perfectly and I had to oblong some holes and leave the bolts loose to help line them up to get the motor mount bolts in. Then I tightened the bolts. I used some engine adapter plates purchased from ebay - Blackheart racing? I think. They had four different positions and I used the 3rd position forward to get the engine forward enough to just clear the passenger head from the firewall. I removed the rear most coil mount stud that was going to hit the firewall.
