A-body Glide trany mount - 10/15/21 06:56 PM

Hey ya'll, I have a 74 Scamp running the 408 that I am going from a 904 to a BTE Powerglide. Its already equipped the small block SFI bellhousing. But I still need the new trany mount. Im having troubles figuring out the best way to go about it. Any good reference pics to help a moparts brotha out would be AMAZING!!!

Thanks
BP

I Made a cardboard pattern of crossmember bolt holes and used 3/8 plate steel cut to same shape as original crossmember the used 3/16 plate to make bracket for 2 bolt turbo 350 chevy mount.

When I first put the glide in my Dart I used original crossmember, notched it and welded a piece of angle on it if I remember correctly. This was a big block though. I still might have it. Will look and take a pic and post it if I do.

Whatever you do just make sure you run a stock rubber mount on it. Nothing solid.

I am glad it will help someone.I held the trans up with an ATV jack while I kept test fitting.If you have a question just ask not that mine is anything special.
