    New cross member exhaust hanger?

    I took out my stock cross member and will be replacing it with the G-Force one. There was an "arm" attached under the mount that stuck out. I was under the impression it was an exhaust hanger.

    Swapping a 305 for a 350

    I'm probably in over my head here, but I bought a 350 bored out .030 over with a mild cam and decent heads, and now I want to swap it out for the stock 305 in my 1979 malibu. I am under the impression that this should be an easy enough swap, but I've never actually pulled a motor or put one in...
