Determine your vehicle's original engine centerline before removing the engine. This is necessary when
installing the new engine.
Position the new engine so the crankshaft centerline is in approximately the same position as the
original engine was. Make certain the new engine clears the firewall, steering box, brake master
cylinder, radiator, etc., with a minimum amount of cutting.
Bolt the engine mount adapters to the block using the & lock washers included in
this kit. Using the proper engine mount holes for your frame width, bolt the frame mount bracket,
rubber/steel pad and engine mount adapter together using the washers & nylon-
locking nuts included in this kit.
On the #4505, #4506 and 4507 mounts tack weld the frame mounts to the frame. Next, disassemble
the adapters and the rubber/steel pad. Finish-weld the frame mounts to the frame for maximum
strength.
On the #4508, #4509 and #4510 mount kits, bolt the frame mounts to the frame using the
included in this kit.
