dont have pics but just get a set of gm frame mounts bolt to motor set where you want and weld it in i bought the chevy to ford uppers from winslow goodwin good heavy mounts bolt to the block and in stock box ford lowers but if you plan on running alot more bubbles you still have to buy lowers then i would sugest a good set of weld in ones that alot of the derby product guys offer

Just a piece of 4 inch C-channel cut to 5 inches long with a hole drilled or blown in it for the clam mounts to bolt to and weld that to the engine cradle you would me suprised how much harder the front is...

Are u talking about making solid motor mounts? If so I don't like that idea at all.. Ran them before and cause me nothing but trouble on 2 different motors.. And derby111 ill get u pictures..

push it down with somthin heavy and chain it then you will have flexability with adusting the rear of the car depending on where it bends

13 inches? Sounds like alot of tires in the air and not on the ground ;D
