Just wondering, because it cost me $650 for a nasty, rusty V-8 cradle from a highly recommended tempest/lemans supplier. Even so, it took him several months to get me one. He said they are not that plentifull and most of them are rusted pretty badly. So, I guess I can't complain.

I'd put the price at 5 bills if it's a nice piece. The labor in modifying a non v8 on top of the difficulty in finding one justifies that price... unless the person doing the mods is only worth 20 bucks an hour.

I spent almost 10 years looking for one local, then found one less than a mile from me
the guy wanted $65.00 I paid the man on the spot, ran home and got my tools and had it home in about an hour! complete drum to drum ( finned drums at that )
So you can pay money or time or just get lucky!
another plus is i got V8 springs.

A search of this forum for references to Crossmember will turn up lots of information on using the 4cyl crossmember with a V-8

I use a 4cyc X member with my V8.With all the fab work needed just to do a solid rear,making V8 motor mounts work was NBD.Tom
