Where might one find the pedestals for engine mounting for a small block? Not the rubber mounts but the K-frame side of it.

Thanks

Never seen K frame parts sold individually if that is what your are looking for?

What car?

73 Cuda 360. Advance where I work, the Sunday guy calls me and is wanting a source for engine mounts, not the rubber pieces but the "ears" that go on the K. From what I understand.

Are you talking about the metal piece around the rubber mount insert? If so that is part of the spool mount. Do they look like these? https://www.ebay.com/itm/73-76-A-BO...NTS-318-340-360-SPOOL-MOUNT/283245598829

I have to get more info on what they're needing first. Thanks for what you've posted so far

Sounds like he wants the steel mounts welded onto the K member for the spool type motor mounts to me

All E bodies came with the square rubber block with steel ears molded in it for the isolator and the mounting bracket on the block.

Like CAB said it looks like he is looking for spool mount parts and E bodies didn't have spool mounts. They were a 73 and later B body, F, M, J body and I believe but I can not say for sure some later model A & C bodies.

These are the small block parts apart and assembled. One side of the 318/3340/360 metal brackets is identical and the other side is specific to a 318 or 340/360. 340/360 use the same brackets.

I have only ever seen the spool mounts on the F M J bodies . . . My 74 Duster360 had "old style" as well as the 76 Feather Duster that I had . . .

A-body spool mounts started in 1973 and continued on all F, M, J, etc. bodies.. If they had anything else, someone changed the k-frame.

Year One spool mount application.

Yes you are correct. I forgot E body didn`t have them.

I disagree on the A body . . .I know my 74 Duster360 was original when I got it, no spool mounts.

I'm pretty sure the 73 340 Duster I had had the spool mounts, but then again, that was a long time ago.
The reason I say that was because I put a 78 400 out of a Daytona Charger into the Duster and used the 400's spool mounts. I think I had to trim the edges of the ears off the driver side brackets on the Duster K member to clear the oil pump on the 400 (that is why it stuck out). I did so many engine swaps between bodies back then it could make your head swim. I did much prefer the spool mounts over the old sandwich mounts, I had lots of broken sandwich mounts back then. 20 years ago I could have told you without doubt, but these days, things tend to blend together.

I've own and work on several different 1973 Dusters, one 340 automatic "Space Duster " with the fold down rear seat and fold down trunk divider and one 340 3 speed stick shift car with bucket seats and no console
One had the spool mounts and the other one did not
I didn't think to look at the SPD on the fender tags back then so I'm not sure if one was a early SPD and the other was not as early or if they even came from the same assembly plants
I had a 1973 or 1974 Dodge 340 or 360 A body Duster style body, not a Demon, but the other name for those type body cars(CRS ). It had the spool mount K member also

I have never seen a '73-up A-body without spool mounts. If there were any they would have been very early 1973 cars, but I have my doubts, BUT I have seen one biscuit mount k-member with the open bottom for the late sway bar...

My 74 Duster360 was Dec.7, 1973 (yup, pearl harbour day car) . . .

Thanks folks. I believe he's found what he needs

That's still long past when any extra '72 k-members would have been used up as, like I said, EVERY '73-up A-body that I've seen had spool mounts.
