I've had a 65 Mustang for right at five years now. I finally got motivated to drop the crate motor I have into it.

I spend some time talking about the motor mounts as they were the most difficult part of the install. (Which isn't saying much).

I should have done this years ago.

Parts list includes
7/16" x 1" coarse thread grade 8 bolts to go into the block
3/8" x 3 1/2" coarse thread grade 8 bolts to bolt the mounts to the frame
1/2" coarse thread grade 8 nut to assemble the upper mount to the lower.

Bought my upper mounts a local autoparts store, got them within a few hours, and paid half as much as online sources.
