351 Ford mounts
Just knocked up some tough engine mounts for a mates 351 Ford.
He keeps breaking them so, these should get the job done....copied another design I'd seen on the www.

Re: 351 Ford mounts
Nice design. I assume those are poly bushings? What are they from/where did you get them? Might have to copy this idea when it comes engine swap time.

I fluked getting the right diameter but, they're a tight fit in the tube and come with a bush. All the design work is done in my plasma program (Design Edge) and, parts CNC plasma cut. These are the second lot I've done, I did some others for a small block Chev, using the same principal altho, I can't take the credit for the design. They're just a LOT better than bonded rubber.

Re: 351 Ford mounts
Hmmmmm.....wasn't paying enough attention, thought the Ford mounts were similar to the Chev, R & L.
WRONG!!!!! All you Ford guys will know what I mean......anyways, problem solved, new ones made, both the friggin same instead of mirror image as shown........ ![]() Also cut the block mount holes oval, makes lining up a breeze, especially on older vehicles that may or may not be true.

Re: 351 Ford mounts
More mounts, this time for Holden Torana, 308 Aussie V8.
Pics of the mounts being trial fitted, the Torana, plus, the Ford mounts in place. Not me, not my shop. Entertainment value only.......

Re: 351 Ford mounts
