    Confused with '66 motor mounts- what do I really need?

    Well, the transmission turned out to only be a 3 speed, I guess the 3rd rod I remember was for the t-case. I did manage to score an A/C delete bracket and pulley off a late 80's F150 5.0L, so I'm one step closer with being able to ditch the power steering and A/C from the Explorer setup.

    Confused with '66 motor mounts- what do I really need?

    Sounds like that might be the way to go if it is actually a 4 speed. I want to say I remember 3 shift levers because I was eyeballing the shift lever for my 3 speed, but it of course only has 2. I'll go double check later today and grab a couple pictures.

    Confused with '66 motor mounts- what do I really need?

    Well, I think I've found a set of lower mounts for about 20$, should know by Sunday. There is an early Bronco in the yard where I work that I believe has a 4 speed toploader, didn't really get a good look. It's got a V8 and a hurst shifter, but also 4wd. Worth pulling out and possibly...

    New guy from Alaska with a huge POS '66 Mustang!

    I thought about keeping the current setup, but the transmission is well worn out, as is all the steering, suspension, brake components, etc. If I have to replace it all anyway, might as well go with V8 stuff and drop a V8 in.

    New guy from Alaska with a huge POS '66 Mustang!

    Well I thought I'd come on here and show off my beater! :rlaugh: It's a 1966 Mustang that I got as payment for some work I did. Story on it is that someone around town was starting to restore around 15-20 years ago when it got vandalized, and after that happened he lost interest and parked it...

    Confused with '66 motor mounts- what do I really need?

    I would be swapping to a carb and distributor on the 5.0L. It does have the GT40P heads (or at least it should, being a 98), and the factory 'tube style' shorty headers, which I might try and use them in the Mustang too. If I got creative enough, I could probably even use the Y pipe off the...

    Confused with '66 motor mounts- what do I really need?

    Thanks for all the replys guys, I see what I need now. I was kind of confused about how they went together. I think I will try to find a set of used stock frame mounts, and then get the new rubber motor mounts from Napa. Those Ron Morris mounts look like a killer setup, but they'd be worth more...

    Confused with '66 motor mounts- what do I really need?

    '66 Mustang, now my 'questions about everything' thread! I have a 1966 Ford Mustang coupe with a 1980-82 Mustang 200ci and original 3 speed transmission. I have a 5.0L from a 1998 Ford Explorer that I would like to drop in the Mustang. I've been told that all 289 and 302 blocks use the same...
