Motor plates
 

I am new to this scene mainly because I build street cars. I am curious of the various motor plate setups offered for pontiacs. All Pontiac has a front and mid plate arrangement I am looking at. Any thoughts?

Here's the All Pontiac plates, plus a few more. :)

I can help. What are you building?

I'm using both AP's front and mid plates on my car (74 GTO Xbody). They work great, easy to fab up and are nice pieces. Like any mid plate application, seriously consider running fore and aft limiters even with a trans mount.
I also use one of their front plates only on my wife's car with the stock motor mounts just to give a little more support on the block and to act as a torque limiter instead of using chains, turnbuckles, straps, etc.

AP front plate, mid plate, poly trans mount & limiters to control longitudinal movement.

Any decent custom water jet business can cut you exactly what you need.

I went with elephant ears instead of a front motor plate. I have a poly trans mount, and two limiters on the front of the engine. No mid-plate.

Thanks every one for the input, we are going to most likely run the all Pontiac setup. If not I am not opposed to making my own.

I've seen your '65 at the Del Mar Goodguys show. VERY nicely done! I may borrow your idea for the steering linkage. Did you have any issues with it?

That steering linkage had issues with a tiny bit of run out and play, thanks it was a really nice cruiser show car.
