the more i read about it, the more it seems like a problem.

i'm currently running a solid front tranny mount with urethane rear mounts. i would like to switch to a soft front mount but i can't seem to find on that would fit my tranny.

seems that all the tranny mounts have the diagonal bolts \"inline\" with the outer holes. the solid mount that i have currently \"off sets\" the diagonal bolts below the outer holes. do thay make a soft mount for this applications or do i have to swap nose cones?

i'm concerned because i'll be putting in a bigger motor down the road.

thanks,
mike

thanks jim, i also have one of those too. if i was to put it in, my tranny nosecone would be too high.

basically what i'm asking is, do they make this type of mount in a soft mount?

Mike, That is a adapter mount so a syncro trans can be mounted to your early pan.
You can swap to a early bus nose cone and hockey stick then run a rubber or eurothane mount.

thanks geoff for the info!!

do you have any early bus nose cones and hockey sticks in that secret storage place of yours?

doing this swap is pretty much a bolt off/bolt on kinda deal right?
