    Motor mounts Empty Motor mounts

    Post by rustrocket84 Tue Oct 12, 2010 9:52 pm

    Did a search and came up with nothing on here or on the web itself. I have a '63 panel van with the stock 170 and 3 speed manual. I've got the parts to replace the tranny mount, and I'm struggling trying to find motormounts for it. Anybody have a line on a set, or have you made anything else work? Thanks in advance for any help.

    I'm putting a 302 in my 67 panel and I have a set but I'm not sure if mine will work or if I will need them ( I will bet that I won't be able to use them). I should know if I need them in the next few weeks.

    It depends on how its set up. Are you doing the crossmember modification yourself or using one of Old Skool's or Blue Oval's crossmember? Both Blue Oval and Old Skool use different mounts than each other.

    I bought the same parts that somebody else listed on here for the tranny mounts, and am going to make it work. The only shops around here are Autozone or Napa really, and neither are too much help for these vans.

    C&G early Fords is only half hour away but they didn't have any of the mounts. They do however have a bunch of other parts.
