i have an 88 thunderbird turbo coupe and i am swaping a 302 into it. The problem i am having is that i cant find any motor mounts for a thunderbird or cougar V8. I am trying to locate the plates that bolt to the engine and frame. does anyone know where i can get some or does any have some i could buy? Thanks for your help!
napa for sure..auto zone, cap, anywhere realy should have them available...
Assuming you mean the upper bracket that bolts to the block, your only bet is the junkyard. They are a dealer only part that has been discontinued...
There were some up on ebay,unsure if there still there.
don't bother with trying to find the bracket that bolts to the engine. just goto autozone and get mounts for a '84-'92 Lincoln Mark VII. they are they same mounts known as "conv mounts"...
Thanks to every one for all the help. I work at autozone so i am going to check out those mounts for a Mark VII. :flip:
But they WILL NOT fit a '86-'88 Tbird/Coug.... Mounts are unique to these years...
so, how would a feller go about getting mounts then?
would a mustang k-member have to be used, and mounts, or will the k-member even fit?
you can swap k-members from a mustang to a t-bird but its not real easy and it would cost alot more money to do that.
mustang k-member bolts right up, no problem. :D
well, the cost would be worth it, and who said life was easy...? :hick:
