hey guys i need a little help here. I have a 1995 s10 truck and i dont know what mounts to use i bought the truck with a bent frame and it had a 4.3 in it. so i bought a new frame and it was out of a 4cyl truck. i have herd storys about some of the conversion mounts such as advance adapters people say they have put thoes mounts in and they had to shim up the tranny about 2in. i dont want to shim anythaing if i can get away with it. I have also herd that some mounts out there put the motor up to high. i want a mount that sets the motor as far down in the cross member as possable.now on with the headers i have herd that you cant use any header with any mount b/c of clerance problems so what mounts should i use and what headers will work with them?

Thanks Jake

just use the 2.8 motor mounts and the conversion mounts with the 2wd headers. The only ay you will get you motor to sit right is either cut and lower your cross member or shim your tranny. Hope this may help you thats what I did to mine and haven\'t had a single problem with it and it sits in there good.
