Checked Rock Auto and the mounts they list are DEA A-2266 which are wrong. They are for '67-'72 A bodies. The correct mount is part number A-2338. The only place I have found that has the correct replacement mounts is Schumacher. The pan scottsman has is fine but it will hit his slant center link. The early A's were designed originally as a slant 6 only car. The steering bits were kept as straight as possible for ease of manufacture. When the 273 rolled around it was discovered that the oil pan was in the way of the center link so a dedicated V8 center link went into production. This was remedied when the A body redesign came out in '67 and the chassis went back to one size fits all...

Agreed- ddartdude stated that in 66 they only used the dropped V-8 link on all cars. I have a 66 Dart /6, 3speed, radio/heater delete car and it has the /6 straighter center link. I also have a 66 Valiant with a /6, auto and it has the same /6 center link. I sold my first car, a 66 Valiant with a /6 and when I put in the V-8, had to change the center link to clear the pan. I have few 65 and 66 V-8 cars that have the drop link, so I know what they look like and can compare.

As far as the correct rubber isolators, I see them on E-bay all the time for $30-$40 a pair.
There should be several on their now. The hard part is the mount brackets. I see them from $65-150 all the time. Just be patient.
