The extra body mounts were cushions only and they went adjacent to the front corner mounts under the firewall. Convertible and big block cars got them. All frames are already prepared to have them there so you can put them on should you decide to pull the body off the frame.

RJ I am a professional resto rod builder. I have built a 71 ss454 rag and
a 66 ss396 rag. am also in the process of doing a 64 rag and a 66 malibu and
a 300. as far as I have ever seen there never has been any difference
between a smblk and a bigblk car frame. the only one that is different is
hey ron the engine mount tower's are the same small block or big block, only one tower for all v 8 cars, the only difference in your frames are the option bolted to it like sway bars and body mount, 10 bolt rear are fine upto 250 horse after that i would go with the 12 , gl rick
Let me clear up something about the engine frame mounts on 68-72 specifically. There are 3 different ones and they are as follows: 6 cylinder, 307, and all other V-8s. The 6 cylinder mounts are obviously different. The 307 mounts are in a world of their own and are taller than the other V-8
For engine mount stands this is correct. My car was a factory 307 car
and I had to get the other V-8 mounts in order to put a big block in
unless I wanted to Mickey Mouse it and use 307 mounts (in between
the stands and the engine). There was no way I was going to trust big
block torque with
Funny I could of swore those extra mounts were on convertibles and
had not darn thing to do with a car being a Big Block. Sure would make it easy
to pick out a clone (non SS made into an SS)if they were missing those
extra mounts.

Hey guys,
Quick question for anyone out there. Is there any difference between a 69 2dr/ht big block frame and a small block frame? Ive heard there are braces? Would they interfere with anything from my
estimated 150

Hey
guys,
Quick question for anyone out there. Is there any difference
I was told I could put a BB in my 69 with
the addition of some braces (I think they were bolt on) and beefier suspension.
