Ausleys and others show the engine mount (frame) as the same part number for 
68-72 cars  http://www.chevelle.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=57_125_223

and energy suspension shows the motor mounts the same for 454, 396,  350, but 
differnet # for 307...
http://www.energysuspension.com/pages/mt_tr3.html

the truck motor mounts are also differnt form the chevelle motor mounts... are 
using chevelle/malibu motor mounts for the 454?
becasue truck motor mounts are different number

I do recall switching out the frame mounts on one car for whatever reason at 
one time but do not recall if the mount (it bolts to crosmemember and the motor 
mount sits on top) is any shorter/wider or whatever for big block or 307....you 
should call one of those guys above, or even the GM dealer. they are usually 
pretty helpful

Subject: [Chevelle-list] Motor Mounts


I've been reading the questions posted for the last couple of years and have 
one of my own.  I sold my last Chevelle 14 years ago when my son was born, so 
it's been a while- it feels good to be a Chevelle owner again.  

I recently purchased another 70 Chevelle to play with.  I have a 454 with TH400 
from a 73 Chevy C10 that I will be swapping over but the motor mounts are 
different.  I purchased a set of mounts from the parts store but they don't fit 
down over the frame mount.  The frame mount is about 1/4" wider than the 
opening of the motor mount.  

I looked on-line at different suppliers and parts stores but they all appear to 
be the same part number.  Do I need different frame mounts or is there a 
different motor mount I'm not finding?  My step-father thinks there were two 
different motor mounts.  The Chevelle I have did not come with an engine so I 
don't know for sure what it had originally; it appears to have been a SBC.  
From my searches it looks like the frame mount and motor mount for a 350 to 454 
are the same and the motor mount for a 307 is a different style. 

Any help is appreciated.

Eric
