Re: `62 engine swap

Manual trans 62's with either 6 or 8 used the front mount. Autos did not. The 6cyl 235 used a different bell-housing than the V8 also. You would need a 60-62 V8 bell-housing with hyd clutch set-up + the front Horse-shoe front mount (i think the 6cyl mount is different) You didn't say if changing to an auto trans with the 350? If auto you could use after-market cross-members (under eng and trans or find some stock auto side mounts) It.s not as easy to do this swap on 60-62's as 63-66. Hoped this helped some--good luck.
