    v8 conversion question

    Good morning all. About to send the frame to the sandblaster and had a final thought. Since I am putting in a sbc should I go a head and remove the toyota I6 motor mounts so that the frame can be cleaned up under their current location? There is no chance that they will be used with the v8...
