So, I bought these http://www.partstrain.com/store/det.../8_Cyl_4-dot-5L/WSEM-2338.html?location=Front

There are made in Taiwan and about $11.50 each shipped. Yes cheap, but I was looking at my mounts and they are a little different. I saw a pic of /6 rubber mounts that looked like my 273 mounts. Basicly, the photo of new mounts don't seem to have the lower lip that hooks on the edge of the K-frame. Is that going to be an issue? Are the V8 and /6 mounts the same?
 
Dustin, (Been awhile. you still frequent the 62-65 list much?)

I think as long as the bolt off-set and raised bump are the same and the size is a match, the lower lip seems insignificant. Cant see anything that it actually comes in contact with, other than possibly supporting the downhill.

For piece of mind, are you going to install a engine strap on the driver's side, 'just in case' ??

Still on the list. I haven't thought about a torque strap, but it is something to think about.
 
I bought some of the cheap mounts from Auto Zone. The bump didn't line up with the hole in the bracket. Junk
