Motor mounts

[Rob Vaughn]

Im putting a 98? (Look at the casting picture below) 360 in a 65 coronet and my memory sucks .If I remember correctly 340 and 360 are the same on one side, was or drivers side? Any how here are pictures I'm mocking up the k frame, someone tell me what I need. I have two 65 Coronets I thought the k frame had 2 bolt holes for the motor mounts. Oh if you have one let me know.

It looks like a 1968 and up k frame to me. It has a through bolted idler arm.

That k frame will move your engine back 2". It is a good thing, but the trans mount would require some attention, as well as the drive shaft etc.

I had a steel spacer used in mounting a fifth wheel hitch. A took my time rounding it to fit on the block.(driver side) 360.
Edit, one of these I think.

How close was the distributor to the firewall?

I believe you also will have to trim the firewall seam to transmission tunnel… a guy I know put a newer k-member with discs in his 64 Dodge and had to do it…As far as the motor mounts the passenger side should be a direct bolt in as that side is the same 318,340 and 360…
