patriot $238 flowtech is junk http://www.summitracing.com/parts/pt...view/make/ford

fit great on my 66, make sure your engine and transmission mounts are situated so your engine is as far back as possible. they can be flipped but if one is wrong, all are wrong.

blackburn, I Googled the number and it comes up for truck FE. What issues are you having? A little more detail would be helpful to us that aren't there.

Is the problem with the starter and the header not going around it?

Well, maybe not quickly. Is this an oxymoron?
I'll catch hell from the sensitive people for this one.

Haha ganstakr you got me lol I removed the engine mount on the right side
completely along with the starter. The main reason it's not fitting is that the,slip joint piece is not fitting be tween the engine and the main cross member
