59A into 32 frame motor mounts
 

Does anyone have or know where I can find the motor mount location for putting a 59a into a '32 frame. I plan to build my own motor mounts that mount to the sides of the frame.

These are actual 1932 motor mounts, if that helps any. These would be relatively easy to duplicate. DD

I have an A front crossmember so the original style mounts won't work for me. Thanks for the picture though.

Follow the Hurst instructions for the side mounts that bolt or weld to frame rails, anything similar to Hurst part A-28. You bolt the enginr to transmission and trans to crossmember, decide on front height, and put the mounts under the pump legs.

Stock flathead engine height can be estimated from the crank bearing on front spring clamp and/or crank hole in grill...crank has to go through that hole to center of crankshaft on a '32. You have higher crossmember there, of course, but estimating shouldn't be hard.
