  It is the Eagle X member. The original mounts have to be cut off and mine welded in place of the old.

Terry thanks for the talk. Sounds interesting, like I said, you may get a call from me one of these days. Think I'm going to go talk to the dealer today & see what they think about trading for my car & giving me some cash to go with it.

Do you offering the motor mount kits for sale? If so, how much?
I can see that there will be a fair amount of cutting required. Do you have a set of detailed instructions to go along with it?

My brother and I just picked up an '81 SX/4 and are going to turn it into a rally car.  He's interested in keeping it all AMC.  I'm interested in more than 82hp.  I was hoping to get an idea on price so that I can pitch the idea of a 360ci/T5/119tc to him.  I believe that's pretty close to what you're running isn't it?

  $350.00 Cdn. The only cutting involved is the original frame mounts. Mounting the new ones can be tedious as clearances are tight all around. Making sure the bell housing is centered and low enough for the bolts to be put in and taken out.

Not sure what Mavericke's doing. Sent mine to him before I knew I was going to get a 360 for him to put in it. Might try to contact him & see.
