351m/400 motor mount help

Hi im new I know most of you deal strictly in tucks. I have a 1971 Mustang that im trying to install a stroked 400, Im having problems locating motor mounts that will work for this application. the 351c mounts wont work I lack 1/2" either side of the frame insulator bracket line up hole. I didnt think it would be this much trouble but apperently I was wrong. I know some cars from 71-82 came w/ 351m or 400 which mounts would work
ranchero,torino, monarch etc... any help would be appreciated as I am in a real jam if I dont get this motor in. it wouldnt bother me if I had to change insulators & mounts

try hitting up the ranchero guys, the truck mounts have a stud coming straight out, unlike the car mounts that horseshoe over the top.

Sorry, I don't know about the mounts. But I'm curious about your engine. What stroke did you go to and what rods and pistons did you use?

I did a 1988 that I put a 351 into for someone 7yrs ago. If I remember Saleen has a conversion kit for it. If you didn't contact them yet they might be able to help you out.
