From what I've heard, the 65 motor mounts are slightly lower than the 66's, which is something I will probably need to address as I am almost ready to swap in a Windsor into my 65. My question is how much lower and is the TCP mount like the 65 or the 66 in regards to this?????
From what I have read, the TCP mounts hold the motor higher than the '66 mounts by just a bit, not sure how much and I could be wrong. The '65 mounts hold the motor lower than the '66 mounts by about 1". The lower the motor sits, the more room you have for headers.
This is a '65 mount that has had a retaining bolt installed. We use this type of mount in all our '65-'66 cars and Falcons. Also, if you want to put a Cleveland in a '65-'66 car, this mount is a must.
This is my wifes '65 coup W/351C with her at the wheel on a 2:15 lap around Laguna Seca.
