Big Block Engine mounts

[L78Kiwi]

Hi Lee, Thanks for the response. I have read this and as I thought there is a difference in the mounts between BB 67/68 vs 69. However the advise on this site is not quite definitive to the problem I am seeing.

With the current 69 mounts on a 69 L72 engine the sump fails to clear the steering connection rod which runs parallel to the main cross member. Also the transmission mount from the gear box is positioned forward of the transmission cross member by about an inch

This leads me to assume the engine (with the current 69 mounts installed) is sitting too far forward on the frame

So my question is, does the 67/68 BB mounts position the engine further back on the frame?
