Schumacher can probably fix you up. I run their poly mounts with good result. Through bolt or interlocking on the driver side and regular on the right.

You could probably find a set at a parts store but quality of new rubber replacements is often pretty bad. I'd go poly.

Are you talking about the rubber part or the metal bracket?

I've seen em on FABO and likely www.slantsix.org someone there would have em but for sure on FABO FYI the /6 insulators are the same, you (as you know) need the metal brackets

Same as slant. I went through this in the early 1980s. No book showed 273 mounts, but they had pics in the back. The correct pic indicated slant. Looked exactly like what was on the car.

You work at a mopar dealer?

From like 1978-1986 or so I was buying NOS parts from a long time local Dodge dealer that was directly across from where I worked for 8 years all in a effort to restore a 71 challenger. I didn't have clue then, never did finish the car and sold many NOS parts to go drag racing. I know better...now. whiney

Harry to parts manager used to put some of my larger parts on lay away. Once I got it paid off I got to take it home, like one time I remember buying a new 71 challenger grill from the dealer like that. Every Fri I went into the dealer and paid them for parts for years. Couple of my friends worked there too as mechanics. Those were the days as I just pulled into the servive building and parked in a MT bay inside next to my buddy who worked there. I also knew the owners as they lived right around the corner from the dealership.
