Ah, I see! However...."IF" those mounts are specific to the truck chassis (like what I need) they are worth a little money, and I could certainly use them.

For a 58 Olds project (freaking sweet cars by the way, love that style!) you can use about any mount you want.

These mounts I talk about came in the late 70's, and early 80's GM trucks that had the Olds 350 Diesel engines in them, and were only every used in those trucks. So, if your 350 Diesel took a dump, you could throw in an Olds engine of your choice, many opted for the 350/455 Rocket.

So, that is what is special about the mounts.

And, if your diesel is late 70s, not 1980, it is smog exempt here in California, which means you could put anything you want in it. Even a 455 from a 442 Hurst W30!

Welcome aboard! Put up some pics! My fave year is 73, excited to see it.

I'll take some with my wife's cell phone. It doesn't really look like a 73, as it has a 77 - 80 type grille, and 1980 round headlight frame. It isn't pretty right now, pretty ratty looking. I do have nice new tires and good hubcaps on though.
