Are 250 motor mounts the same as V8 cars?

I remember reading a while back when I joined the site that someone had a 250 car that they converted to a v8 car. The owner of the car I think stated that he didn't need to replace any of the mounts because he was able to use the 250 ones.

Am I remembering wrong or did this person modify those stands and mounts?

 

Im 99.9% sure, Nope.

 

very different mounts and perches. i did it this winter, not the same at all.

 

I have 6 banger mount stands with my 302

 

flipped backwards

it uses 67-79 302 ford truck mounts to do it this way



my car was setup like this when i got it, ive not had any problems with this setup in the 4,500 ive put on my car even with the turbo setup.It does seem to set the motor lower and further back then the stock mount setups but thats 2 big pluses in my book..

 

Well, that looks like the way to do it. That will end all of the "finding" and "paying" for the factory mounts that came in the V-8 Maverick, when doing a V-8 conversion. I never thought of doing it that way.

 

I have those motor mounts if your interested lol!!!!!

 

i hate it when i am wrong. sorry guys.

 

What headers are you using Joe Dirt with the 250 mounts fliped backwards.

 

headman long tubes

 

Whats the pn# and which crossmember did you use the 6cyl crossmember. Did you have to do anything to it because the engine set back.

 

dunno 88300 sound right? stock crossmember and trans mount

 

who decided to take a BFH and mangle the support for the engine stand...lol

 

the previous owner who had a 351w rigged up in it. I left it to remind me of how not to do things...

 

Dear All Posters,

Thank You very for all the fast replies. Just one more question, the 302 that we are using has the rear oil well. Its not a deep one, just if we put the mounting bracket on the chassis pointing to the back will everything fit just fine, or will it have to be as it in the picture to clear the steering components


Thank You all very much
