RE: Can't find 1962 361 Motor Mounts

[Jason Rhoades <Jason@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I recently used motor mounts from a late 80's  early 90s p/u truck and had good luck so far. They are about 1/4" thicker but hey . and napa had them for $8.00

2C: Logically, if the motor is in the correct position using the $6 mounts, it does not care what the mounts are.  :) Use Grade 8 bolts. If you are concerned about engine twisting you can also tie the motor down with cable strap / motor strap style for backup. 

One curiosity, though, is why would Chrysler engineers feel the need to design a mount unique to one vehicle model? 

Thanks,
Gary H.
