So I helped a buddy stab a 727 and 383 into his Dart. I put the trans cross member he had in, and then we went to do the engine mounts.He had bought Trans Dapt conversion mounts and new rubber bisquits.the mounts are slotted up and down.....but with the rubbers placed verticle, there is no way the holes line up.It looks like if you turned the rubbers sideways it would......but thats wrong.Correct? The rubber section should go up and down correct? If we do that then the trans wont bolt up with the crosmember mounted.
I looked on ebay, and found some mounts sort of like his......but they are slotted back and forth, so these might work.I havent seen any pics posted of what these Trans Dapt mounts look like in use.and if so, what trans crossmember was used?
I havent done a BB swap in 20 years...and when I did I used my smallblock trans crossmember to locate the install, and made my own mounts .I am just trying to gather some info to help my buddy, as this project has been stalled out for several years....helping motivate him, and donating time, so all help and pics I can share with him is appreciated.
