    more difficult

     



    I would think a V6 would be worse than a V8 because the shorter block wouldn't reach the frame for the front mounts in the stock frame..
    I remember when hot rods were all home made.

    well that would not be to big of a deal to fab up mounts or find the old hurst front mount and go from there

    Smile Thanks

     



    Thanks for the input on installing a V6 in a 53 Chev. I will take it in consideration. Probably will go with the V8 that I have versus buying another motor. Can put that money towards other well needed parts.
