Does anyone have a printable document i can use make engine mounts? Im really not sure where to begin by making them on my own. Im swapping in an L67 with the stock auto, so im hoping someone else outthere that has done this swap, took the time to copy down how they made the mounts. Ive never fabricated anything like this before, and i dont have the $$ to buy premade mounts. Thanks

Just put it on the cradle and start putting it together... The blueprints for the brackets would be fairly hard to work with.

I typically just get the Hbody brackets to start with. See my ad in the mall. https://www.fiero.nl/forum/Forum4/HTML/047063.html

ok but how much do i need to raise it up? Until the axles are more or less straight, then just start mocking up mounts?

Use the tranny mounts from a 92 to 95 Trans Sport van that had the 4T60E tranny and make an engine mount to match them, they will have the engine sitting low enough to clear every thing.
These mounts are designed for the engine to sit nice and low in the cradle for clearance in a van that uses the same cradle as the Pontiac 6000 which is the cradle the Fiero one was designed from. Dan
