Car had a 440 installed in it but was taken out when I bought it. All parts were there supposedly except motor. I did see the car with the 440 in it. The left side motor mount and bracket looks right or fits on anyway. The right hand side is or what should be does not bolt on or even look close. All the pictures I have tried to look at on the site have been removed. Anyone have good pictures of what the 65 B body big block brackets should look like. I did buy new mounts from summit that fit 65 and marked left and right. Help would be greatly appreciated

They say there are no such thing as a stupid question.
They say there is always the exception that proves the rule.
Don't be the exception.

Here's mine. They're '64 but should be exactly the same as yours.

Driver's side.. extra bolts are a mod to eliminate the need for a torque strap.



Passenger's side.. no mods.

If you use the Schumacher Creative Services mounts they won't move and you won't need a torque strap

I only bought the left mount for my '64 Polara

Or... if you don't want to spend the cash you can do the simple mod I did and save $100.

I may have one of those laying around upstairs in my garage. You can have it if you want to go that route.
