The same engine mounts for a 1965/66 F100/250 352 will work with any FE engine: 352/360/390/410/428.
Remove the 1963 passenger car engine mounts, and replace them with the trucks mounts...it's a bolt on operation.

The cars engine rubber motor mounts are the same from 1961 thru 1964.
The bare block used in 1961/64 cars is the same bare block the 1965/67 trucks used, so the rubber mounts should bolt right up.

The block number is C1AE 6015G with OL28:3 on it.

I know the 1963/64 blocks are the same because I have 2 1963 Galaxies AND a 1965 F100. Parts catalog says the blocks are the same, too.
Where in CA are you?
I can suggest a mechanic friend of mine in Orange County (Bill's Auto Repair) to give you advice and ID the block.
All he works on is older Fords made prior to 1980.
