For my birthday, I got all of the stuff I need for my carbed 4.3L to go into my 2wd blazer. Right now it has a 2.8L in it. Do I have to get different motor mounts? When the 4.3L was put into my 4x4, they used these motor mounts that bolted up to the block that worked with the 2.8L mounts on my 4x4 frame. Could I take the mounts off of my 4x4 frame and put them on my 2wd frame? I have the "adapter mounts" still(the part that bolts to the block). Would the adapter mounts that worked with the 2.8L mounts on my 4x4 be the correct adapters for my 2wd? I'm on a really really tight budget but I gotta get the motor in there. Me and my dad are gonna do it over my spring break(March 11-19).

All I'm really asking is can I use the motor mounts that were used on my 4x4? Are the 4x4 mounts completely different from the 2wd? Would anybody happen to have any motor mounts laying around for a 2wd 4.3L?

Let's make this a little more clear....

When the 4.3L was put into my 4x4, the 2.8L mounts stayed on my frame...the mechanic just got some mounts for the block that "adapted" to match the 2.8L mounts on the frame. Would these mounts that the mechanic got work with the 2.8L mounts on the frame of my 2wd? Or are the the frame of a 4x4 and 2wd completely different?

i'll get some pics of the one's on my 4x4 frame and the ones that are gonna go on my block. And maybe some of the one's that are on my 2wd now. I gotta work tomorrow though, but i'll get em up soon. I hope they work. are the frames different?? to me they look the same, and i've been observing

the 4x4 frame has provisions for the transfer case, and front diff mounting.
