what are most people using for motor mounts and tranny mounts for this swap? I have searched through the archives but didn't see anything directly related to this question. I see that spriso makes mounts for the SR swap but not for the KA. thanks in advance Alp

Check w/DGR Fabrication, he's done a KA swap.
I think the swap photos were linked somewhere here on 311s.org
Looked like a high quality job.

Please post any info you find, I'm also planning a KA swap into my 68 SPL.
Thanks!

Here's the general approach:
-use the stock KA mounts. Use Nissan engr'ing design whenever possible.
-bolt them onto KA motor, settle it into place and align
-scribe or spot weld mount locations to frame
-remove engine, leaving mounts
-cover rubber elements, finish weld all around
