Motor Mounts (1 Viewer)

[Xpnsv72fj]

I'm looking to place my old round style motor mounts and need to see who sell them? I've already check with criuseroutfitters and they don't have them.
I would switch to the later model ones but I think I read somewhere that there are fitment issues, can someone confirm if this is true.
My 40 is a 72 and will be running a 86 F2
Thanks Josh

there should be no issues, as with the 86 mounts the new models were long in service.
irrc if you dig around long enough the round ones can still be found.

I believe I still have a few of the round ones in stock.

That said, the only real fitment issue I've encountered with using the later style ones has nothing to do with their shape. Rather, it is the fact that the female boss on the topside is often too tall to allow the mount to go flush to the bracket. That can be simply fixed with a grinder.

The cross-section of the later mounts also provide a superior bond.

What might you want for them?
They would look good in my '75.

Sorry again
