This is an interesting topic, I am currently in the final steps of a 72 K20 build with car 427BBC/NV4500/6 bolt round pattern NP205. the powertrain is mounted to an 86 K30 motor and transmission crossmembers with 86 motor and trans mounts. I also installed the tcase to frame bracket. Should I remove the side T/C mount without adding anything else in place? Is this not to much cantilever weight for the NV4500 aluminum tailhousing? NOW is the time to do something before she's back on the road.
