They carry replacment motor mounts for all sorts of Mopar engine swaps - they even have a conversion motor mount kit to drop a V8 in place of a six without changing k-members! Or even drop a big block into an A-Body. I was seriously considering them until I got a V8 k-member for my '73 Duster. Check 'em out - www.engine-swaps.com

(this is the mount that has a stud going down through the k frame) spool mount, like the 85 would have, mounts to k frame with a nut & bolt that goes front to back through U channels on k frame with motor mounts round rubber bushing in between. best I can explain. in other words there are 2 different k frames (bisquit = pre 73 & spool = 73 up) 273 & 318 share same mounting spots on motor 340 & 360 share same mounting to motor, but different from 273/360. Identify what k frame you have & we can let you know what mounts to use or get. Chris Schwartz 73 Swinger 340 12.451 @ 108.78 73 Gold Duster, needs a plan.

Mancini, schumaker, etc. Chris Schwartz 73 Swinger 340 12.451 @ 108.78 73 Gold Duster, needs a plan.
