looking for a set of slant 6 to 360 motor mounts with the poly bushings ? yes I know I can run the factory original 273 mounts and use a space on one of the bolts but where I live rubber dry rots here in southern mo. I'm still using the slant6 k frame and not swapping out . has anybody made sold metal mounts for these earlier abodys ? I know they make them for 67 and up.

U Want new ones ?
 
Not sure if it’s what your looking for, these were off my 360 in my 65 valiant. They are original 273 brackets and newer mounts. I had the conversion mounts before but with a little bit of power, a 4 speed and slicks they bent and the engine/trans was pushed back about a half inch due to them not having any support from front to back.

Please educate me , I have a 66 slant and going to install V8 with solid motor mounts for drag car can the adapters support some serious HP or is V8 cross member & mounts the better choice I want to do this once thanks Chris
 
There is only 1 style k member for the early a bodies. Slant 6 and V8 have the same one. Your only options as far as I know are original 273 mounts, a motor plate or the conversion mounts from slant 6 to small block. The problem I had with those was in the area I colored red there’s no support from front to back. With my mild 360 a 4 speed and slicks it bent them. When it bent them it shoved the whole engine and trans toward the back of the car. Hope this helps.

Good luck there they been out stock lately MAYBE things are geting back to normal.
 
So their bent up ? what need to be fixed and how much?

No these I have are the original mount brackets. The wholes were enlarged to use this newer mount. That’s all that’s wrong with them. The conversion mounts are weak and will bend over time if you drive it hard.

I think there’s a couple confused people in this thread. One of them being me. I have original mounts I’m selling, no need to reinforce them. I in the past have tried the conversion mounts and they bent, that is when and why I went with original mounts. If your interested in purchasing my original mounts please pm me I’d like to get $140 shipped.
