Hey moneymaker, I was wondering if you could do me a favor?
I need the measurements for the drivers side mount, the part that is in a C or V shape, As you know mine has bent in and I am in need of a new one, I just need to know how big the opening is at the end, from inside to inside. It would help out a lot! thanks!

Did you happen to get it yet? I need to rip the bent one out today before I go back to school. Then I have to build one in school and the only free day i have is Monday, because we get a month off for x-mas. thanks

ok thanks! They look to be home made already once! So I guess I really did need that measurement Oh and one more thing.... About that 270H Cam, I guess the engine builder told my dad that "the valve train can't handle anything with that much lift. But it already has .440 while the 270H has I think .501. Which makes no sense because I thought a stock 289 could handle around .500, and I have updated heads.? He also told me because its hydraulic its not going to change the sound.[This message has been edited by Stang28965 (edited 12-10-2001).]

He is wrong on the sound. Just ask Sam or anyone of the hundred or so other members who have a 270H.  If you have at least 90# of seat pressure and the installed height of the valve springs has enough clearance then the cam will work GREAT! ------------------
