Question F-150 Frame

I'm putting a Cummins ISB in my '86 150 and need to know if there is a difference between the F-250 frame and the F-150 Frame in the engine bay.
The motor mounts I need to buy state that they will fit f-250 - 350 - etc.....
I don't know if they excluded the 150 because it's a 1/2 ton, and the idiot I talked to on the phone only knew what was listed in the catalog.

Any help would be appreciated!

Where do the motor mounts sit? On the crossmember, or behind like stock V8 mounts?

I know there are differences in frame strength, but I don't know about motor mount compatibility.

Here's a suggestion: look up motor mounts for an F-150 with a 300, and an F-250 with a 300. If the part numbers are the same, then the mounts will also interchange for your application. Make sense?

Thanks for the help, It turns out that I'll be able to use the mounts for the 250 in my 150. This should turn out to be an interesting project.
