engine mount question Reply #2 – July 22, 2009, 10:31:41 AM 70's style mounts like what I have in my cougar. the bolt through frame type mounts, the 87-88 use the same type of mounting. I will try these when we drop the engine in the new TC and let everyone know either way. Quote Selected

engine mount question Reply #4 – July 22, 2009, 11:07:16 AM I looked some up. ('77 Tbird w/ 302).They'll probably hit the K-member before you can get the bolt through them. Quote Selected

engine mount question Reply #6 – July 22, 2009, 09:09:57 PM Well, I'm not saying the other ones WON'T work, but from the pics I looked at they looked to be "short". The Fox mounts are kind of tall.My mounts run $175, to your door. Quote Selected
