Diesel,
If you look closely you'll see that straight 6 and FE (360, 390) perches are the same.
Its definately going to be a wrecking yard item.

From 1965 until 1979 there are 3 sets of engine perches for 2 wheel drive F100 through F250.
Set one fits all inline 6 and all FE engines.
Set two fits 289,302,351w, 351c, 351m, and 400.
Set three fits 429 and 460.
Bill, the reason for the different part number is the left perch has a slight bend in it for some reason unknown to me. However it still does the same thing.

Yep, everyone is correct.
And I believe the slight bend and different part number thing is due to the dent sides needing to fit around the Saginaw PS gear box?
I have these available for the 1965 - 1972 F100/F250, 1967 - 1972 F350 application and also the "bent" ones for the 1973 - 1976 F Series.
I would also speculate that the in line six mounts from 1977 - 1979 2wd F Series would match up to that FE engine just fine?

I think I have a set if you are interested. They came out of a 73, 2wd camper special with a 360. I parted the truck a while back, but I'm pretty sure I have the motor mounts somewhere still. If you want I can see if I can locate them and get you some pics and a price. PM me if interested.
