I have a question on the motor mounts. Is there a difference in height of the upper cushion on different years?
I have a 49 block with the Mercury oil pan and the truck water pumps with wide belt.
Reason for question is I have to weld in the motor mounts to the frame. I have a TCI frame with the custom independent front suspension and it is very close oil pan to cross member on initial measurements. I have not mocked up with block yet just trying to measure twice to eliminate extra work. The measurements I am using are from the wescottsauto drawing.
Also if anyone else has a similar suspension from TCI or a TCI frame any pictures would be nice.
