I have a 72 Skylark that I'm gonna shnarf the 350 outta for my Regal. Even though It will be awhile before I work on this again, I want to lay the BB in it. I don't have the correct Skylark BB mounts, and I really don"t have the extra $$$$$ to buy them. I have a set of BB mounts outta a Wildcat. I'm a good welder, so I will weld these onto the crossmember. I don't think Ill have any trouble centering it( as long as the BBs sit in the center ). But I need to know how high they are. If any one out there has their BB outta their Skylark/GS, could you please post some photos of the mounts as the are on the crossmember? Maybe with a rule beside them for reference? I'd really appreciate it, Thanks.
Dan, see attached. Also, here is a one of my threads, http://www.v8buick.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=7109&highlight=frame scroll down a ways to see another view of the frame mounts. These pictures are also from a `72 Skylark, 455 to be installed next month! Oops, that should say 0.962", I averaged the two sides to get this number should be very close.
Craig, You are "Da MAN". Thank you for the very clear picture and measurements. People like you are why this website kicks but!!!!
