In my 64, I mounted up a 440, with a 67 727. Only 'mod' I had to do, on the stock trans crossmember, was move the mount box back 1/2". Used the right year mount for the 727.Not to hijack but does anyone know who has 66' up 727 mounts into a early trans crossmember?.
Thanks for that info , i was under the impression that i needed a "special" mount to use a later trans with a 64' crossmember . Car is getting a AlterKation front end so not sure what will happen with exact engine mount location.In my 64, I mounted up a 440, with a 67 727.

Take note though, I stayed with the 64 BB K-member, leaving the engine in the stock position. Some use a later K-member, to move the engine back. That makes for a different measurement on the trans crossmember.
I don't know anything on the AlterKation front end, what all changes are made.Car is getting a AlterKation front end so not sure what will happen with exact engine mount location.
I don't think so.wouldn't swapping the 64 tail shaft to the newer 67 trans work??
