QA1 K-Member on, but issues with motor mounts need help

[racerdude5]

Okay so I got the k member on and everything is lining up except for the passenger side motor mount. I have the bracket with the 3 bolt holes on the passenger side and it won't fit no matter what. On the drivers side I'm using the four bolt bracket mounted on the forward side of the holes in the block. What's going on here? I need some help. I'm so close to finally finishing then this came up. How many different types of brackets are there for A-Bodies with small blocks? 62-66 67-72 Driver's Passenger's etc? How are they orientated on the block? Front side of mounting holes or back side? Thanks!

Bracket goes behind the motor ears...

Just looked at our 71 Dart with QA1 K member

Should I loosen the transmission mount? Okay if they go on the back though of the ears, why do the directions at Schumacher creative services illustrate the 318 brackets on the front? What's going on here?

Are they stock small block bracket?

 

[racerdude5]

Yeah. My car is 74 with a 318 so I am going from spool to biscuit type brackets.

I actually started with the 3 bolt on the drivers side and 4 bolt on passenger side. Both on backside of the ears, but the biscuit was back about 2 inches from where it is supposed to match the k member

Sorry I effed you up in your other thread, thought you were going "to" spool. Why'n 'ell would QA use biscuits is beyond me.
