thanks for the how-to, but are you sure the oem bolts are 3/8? i thought they were 7/16 fine. no matter a very good instructional piece.
 
I'm a knuckle dragger.

It would help me if when you have the photos of the mounts and brackets, speaking of the left and right differences...

Labeling the photos with an R and L over each one would help with orientation.

Thanks Karl!
 
I'm swapping from a 318 to a 1973 360 block. I know the mounts are different. I see Mancini racing offers the kit but it says for 1967 to 1972 A bodies. I assume the block being a 1973 doesn't make a difference but wanted to make sure. Also, are there other good sources for the brackets? It seems like there are plenty of sites out there that will send you the brackets that claim to fit but don't know there is a different one on one side. Thanks for your help.

I did go back and update some of the pictures to label the left and right hand sides, but don't have good pictures to show the differences... I need to get some good pictures so I can update the article...

If anybody has some that I can use, please add them to this thread and I will update...
