Title: WTB or Info: Engine to motor mount bracket
Post by: blu84302 on July 26, 2010, 12:21:08 PM
I'm needing a 5.0L engine to motor mount bracket. I'm pretty sure it's 79-93 mustang style but it could be specific to non-roller motor vehicles. It's for my 84 5.0L.  I haven't found a vendor for this part so I'm asking for someone who may have a set for sale or knows of a vendor.

Here is a pic of the mount that I'm trying to use. I need the bracket that connects to the motor Both sides.
It will be the bracket that the two smaller studs connect to.

The current brackets on your 302 won't work?

I didn't save the mounts from my 84.  The motor has 86 type mounts that won't fit the k-member on my 84. I bought 84 mounts but they don't come with the bracket and I've had no luck locating them on  e-bay or the net.  I searched for a good hour.

I'm really wanting to get my motor in the car soon and these are keeping me from doing it.  I may end up making my own from the 86 type bracket and modifying it to fit the motor mounts.

Maybe if I make a project thread then people with throw some parts my way.  So expect pics sometime soon. :evilgrin:

And Chuck, I'm sorry but I'm to poor to keep the bird gold.  It's going to be black instead.

Shame about the color.  It was truly unique.

Good to see things still happening with the car though.

I had those pieces from the HO when I swapped it into mine (car's an '88)


Wouldn't be any help to you though, they were both cracked. Still, I suppose they can be welded?
