need help putting an olds v8 in a g-body malibu
I'm looking for help in dropping an olds v8 in a 80 malibu. As far as i know, i have all the parts i'm going to need to get started. (frame mounts, motor mounts, tranny mounts) The malibu chassis has SEVERAL different holes in the engine crossmember for frame pads, but none of them match up exact with the olds mounts. Does anyone know of an "easy" way to get figure out where the frame pads need to be before I get the engine up on the cherry picker?
I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
