Actually, its a 66 390 block retrofitted into a 1953 F-100. I'm using the stock steel mounts from a 1969 F-100. I realize that the drivers side is longer than the passenger side. The steel/rubber mount with two bolt holes to the block (with the single stud) were pulled from yet another block--a 360. I'll be reusing all I can and then building up the cross piece as necessary since the lower portions are no longer sitting atop the crossmember of the 1969 twin I-beam truck. I see where there is also a right and left steel/rubber piece--those I kept marked in separate bags. But the whole caboodle will be bolted onto the engine, b/housing and T-18 tranny and slid into the truck for proper fore and aft positioning. I just need to make sure that the steel/rubber block side pieces are not inverted. Thank in advance.
