Patcon Posted May 15, 2019 Share #37 Posted May 15, 2019 I remember some discussion a couple of years back about mounts not lining up 1 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/62002-swapping-to-f54p90/?page=4#findComment-575501 Share on other sites More sharing options...
siteunseen Posted May 15, 2019 Share #38 Posted May 15, 2019 Same problem with the mounts here too. I ground mine down to a half circle looking pin. There's enough in the hole to keep them in place. From what i read the mounts now are all universal and work fine on 280s. 240s need some massaging. Mine were Beck Arnleys. Good luck.

Sailor Bob Posted May 15, 2019 Author Share #40 Posted May 15, 2019 (edited) Thats my thought too. All they do is align (I assume (arse of u and me)).

Zed Head Posted May 15, 2019 Share #41 Posted May 15, 2019 Which parts are not aligning? I left all of my nuts and bolts loose and a pointed chisel as a drift pin to align the motor to mount holes to get the bolts through. My problem was the motor to mount alignment. The locating pin to mount stud distance was fine. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/62002-swapping-to-f54p90/?page=4#findComment-575507 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sailor Bob Posted May 15, 2019 Author Share #42 Posted May 15, 2019 (edited) i didnt see any alignment issue (not to say there isnt another issue). Right now my comment is regarding the pilot stud. It is to far from the bolt. I probably should have removed the washers for the picture.

Sailor Bob Posted May 15, 2019 Author Share #43 Posted May 15, 2019 Also, they are threaded mounts. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/62002-swapping-to-f54p90/?page=4#findComment-575510 Share on other sites More sharing options...

siteunseen Posted May 15, 2019 Share #45 Posted May 15, 2019 File that end off that doesn't go into the hole on the cars side. O into a D and they'll drop in. If I'm thinking what you're saying. If not I'm arse-suming. 1 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/62002-swapping-to-f54p90/?page=4#findComment-575514 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zed Head Posted May 15, 2019 Share #46 Posted May 15, 2019 I remember some of those threads. I think that my motor mounts are Anchor brand, from Oreilly auto. There are others. Brand was a question. Mine had screwed up threads on the studs. 1 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/62002-swapping-to-f54p90/?page=4#findComment-575516 Share on other sites More sharing options...
