Motor Mounts...to Buy

[rodstored-72]

hey there all,
i am looking for a new complete set of motor mounts that are from the block to the engine mounts on the frame. i have a 350 sbc (383) h.p. the block is correct for the 72 year. i know i can get replacement parts through lmc, but i think those are just the pads (?) i am looking for the whole assy. i have also check with performance suspension components here in phoenix & they do not have them either. can any of you point me in the right direction so i can install my new motor thanks!!

Any parts store will have the mounts for less than 10 bucks each. I just got two this week for 18 odd dollars out the door, tax included.

LMC would not be the best source in my opinion.

On edit, there is nothing else. The mount bolts to the block with three bolts, then to the frame stand with 1 bolt. If you have an engine and a set of frame stands, all you need are a pair of the mounts and a few 3/8" bolts.

Prothane makes polyurethane engine mounts, which are extremely high quality. I got tired of the "Made In India" mounts they sell at auto parts stores separating on me, so I bought a pair of these.

For a small block you need part number 7-509. You can order them from www.summitracing.com. They are a bit expensive, but they'll be the last pair of motor mounts you ever buy.
