Wow!! That really looks good I am going to redo my 4x4 frame next year and hope it looks half as good as yours. Keep up the good work!! That garage looks more like a vehicle bedroom than a garage

what brake system are you going to be using? Manual or power? I dont think you are going to get even the small diameter power booster to clear those valve covers. Are you going to use a relocation kit, or

If the heater box is an issue, and you want some heat, this item might help. If you buy just the inside the cabin part, and plumb it into your original heater hose lines. You will have heat, in a nice compact unit. Heck you may even be able to duct it so the vents work. http://www.aquahotoffroad.com/Pages/offroadheater.htm

As Harry mentioned the 89-93 Diesel motor mounts are a bolt in fit for the /6 and v8 engines.
I used them on my 440 swap in the Ramcharger. They are a tad taller, maybe 3/16 to 1/4 inch. But they have more material, and are very tough. Also they have the locking tabs so if they do fail, the motor wont jump out and head down the road by itself.
Surprisingly the mount on the left is the cheaper Anchor #2710 and it has more material, and is better than the more expensive NAPA mount.
The middle is the stock, factory mount, well torn.
For more info, and a followup on the mounts performance after racing, follow the link:
