Actually, I'm not certain, either. |

The 1967 thing has me wondering, but I've heard it from a few people. I sorta think it's better to just assume 1967-70 FE mount assemblies are the same, at least until I see different with my own eyes.
The bottom line is if you are converting from small block V8 to big block, you'll have to drill a couple holes in the small-block frame mounts and buy left hand and right hand FE-type steel plates that bolt up between the engine and the insulator. FE-type Insulators (same left and right) are being reproduced, and are dime a dozen, or maybe $30.00 each, whichever you find first.
If you are converting from 6-cyl to FE, you'll have to buy frame mounts, insulators, end engine plates. Easily converted small block frame mounts are common, and I still find big-block Mustang frame mounts for sale cheap at swap meets (bought a pair for maybe $25 recently), so you just gotta hunt out the FE engine plates. I understand FE engine plates have also been reproduced, so I doubt that any of this conversion stuff is tough to dig up for a good price.
