302 motor mounts

I'm trying to find mounts that bolt to the frame for a 302. It's a 77 4x4 frame. I'm wondering if other motors used the same as the 302 so that when I try to find them at the junk yard it'll make my search a little easier and maybe open up a better selection. 351W should be the same right? How bout a straight 6? Any others?

What 351W mounts would those be?

351W's were not installed in F150/350's until 1981.

Ford did not offer a 302 engine with 4WD until 1980 (excepting 1969/77 Bronco's).

300 uses the same mounts and location as the 302 so thats teh engine your looking for. but what motor was in the truck in the first place? I know that I dropped a 351C directly in place of a 351M/400 using motor mounts from a 86 with a 5.0. the 351c adn the 302 use the same frame mounts on cars so should work on trucks too. In other words if it has a 351m/400 in it to start with, the 302 shouldn't need different frame perches, just go ask for motor mounts for a mid 80s F150 and bolt it in.

I bought a bare frame to start building a new truck with, it didn't have anything on it except crossmembers and body mounts. So I have no Idea what it originally had. I'm putting in an EFI 302 and just want to make sure it's in the right place. I'm also using a newer cab so I need the motor and trans in the right position before I can mount my cab cause I'm pretty sure the cab with have to get moved back on the frame so the shifter with go through the factory hole in the floor.

Thanks for that info numberdummy, saved me from lookin like a tard at every junk yard around.

I know 351m/400 stuff will be found easily so I guess I'll grab stands from one of them if I can't find a 300 truck and see how it goes.

Hmmm, that might be the case with 4WD's, but it ain't with 2WD's:

1969/79 F100 & 1975/79 F150 302 perches are the same as 1977/79 F100/350 2WD 351M/400 perches.

Right: DOTZ6028A was replaced by D7TZ6028B / Left: DOTZ6029A was replaced by D7TZ6029B

Well Bill your numbers prove the point that all he has to do is find some from a 351m/400 truck which in 79 would be more plentiful in the 4x4s then a 300 would be anyway.
