There won't be any problems with motor mounts or the bellhousing or using your intake manifold or anything else it's the same block you should be a go ------------- http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=1477 - 1983 Ski Nautique 2001 1967 Mustang 302 "Decoy" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cO5MkcBXBBs - Holeshot Video |

Joe,what I meant about the motor mounts was any tricks to ease my install and not get anything out of line .Ive done plenty of engine swaps,Just not in a SN.Was just curious if it was just as straight forward as it looks. Thanks ------------- my 1980 SN is mad at my 2009 HD |

If you've done plenty of engine swaps, I'd say that it' as straightforward as it looks, but no matter how hard you try to avoid an alignment check/alignment job afterwards you'll be doing at least a check and probably an alignment job. |

Agreed, it probably could use an alignment now.. ------------- http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=1477 - 1983 Ski Nautique 2001 1967 Mustang 302 "Decoy" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cO5MkcBXBBs - Holeshot Video |

I planned on checking after the install,and then making any adjustments.Thanks for the input guys.Not saying I'll enjoy this process,but I'm looking forward to it. I started a new thread that I'll keep updated pics on. ------------- my 1980 SN is mad at my 2009 HD |

Clean up the corrosion on the motor/ trans mounts while they are on the bench. Then you won't fight it in the bilge. ------------- “Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.” Ben Franklin |
