Does anyone have an engine or vehicle with factory 14B engine mounts? I'm trying to find out what angle Toyota put them on. I have some mounts coming for a different application and the Toyota angle would be a good place to start.

The engine mounts are vehicle specific, rather than engine specific; I'm not sure if the angle of the Coaster and Dyna mounts is the same.
I have a 3BII from a Land Cruiser and a 15B-T from a Mega Cruiser, both are the same block casting as a 14B. The Land Cruiser mount brackets are angled further from the block (larger angle) compared to the Mega Cruiser mounts. I have both to hand, so if I can find a protractor I can give you an estimate if it helps.
Sorry that this is so late. I dug out the Mega Cruiser mounts and I was wrong - they are the same angle as the Land Cruiser.
At the top of the picture are the BJ60 mounts, at the bottom the BXD10 mounts. Left side are the LH engine mounts, i.e. the intake side on the B engines.

Angles are all the same.

Estimating the angle, I used a straight edge to estimate a triangle with base 110 mm and height 93 mm.

Which makes for an angle of approximately 50º off horizontal.

In case you are not familiar with the BJs; like the HJs they use another wedge piece under the rubber engine insulator to increase the angle off the horizontall. I can get photos of these too if it would be useful.
You can also see how uneven in length the two BJ60 mounts are - the engine is well off being parallel to the centre line of the vehicle. As I recall, the engine is mounted vertically.
