460 motor mount?

I have a 77 F-150 with a Lincoln 460. the left (sitting in the cab) motor mount is broken the previous owner had taken a log chain and chained it down. now i can't even change the oil 'cause the motor is leaning too far. I looked in LMC and they said that all the motor mounts were not for a lincoln motor but the thing had motor mounts

I swapped a 460 Lincoln into my 76 F-100 2wd. I used L & L motor mounts. No problem. Not sure that there is any difference between the Lincoln and Ford mounts.

there was a Lincoln 462 iirc but you probably just have a standard 460 that happened to come out of a linclon.

the 429/460 casting numbers indicate that they are all (up until 79 that is) originally cast for use in the Lincolns that does NOT make them a Lincoln motor.

that said I prefer these to the L&L mounts

My motor has been built. It hasn't been dynoed, but an educated guess is somewhere north of 450 HP. Way more than any stock motor. No problems with the L & Ls. I know some other guys have used other mounts with no issues as well. I'm not familiar with them, but I can recommend the L & L. they are way beefier than the stock mounts. If you do a search I think you will find a couple of old threads on this topic.
