Merry Christmas everyone! Question, which engine mount is the right side (passenger) mount? The one with the straight sides or the one with the curved side? Thanks for all of your help.

If originals, should get the PN stamped. Odd is left even is right

I'm not sure if they are originals but, neither has a part number on it. I believe this car had an engine swap from a 400 CID at some time in its past and must have used aftermarket mounts. I can't find any information as to which one is left and right. One of the mounts has straight sides and the other has a curve in one side. Was hoping someone might know which side is which.
Thanks for your time.

Did you look at the picture?

Yes, I looked at the picture. The 71/72 mounts are completely different. Brackets and insulators are separate items. I've been looking at parts manuals and from what I can gather the right side mount uses three short bolts and the left side uses two short and a long bolt. If that is actually correct then I believe that the bracket/mount with the curved side goes on the right side. It just does not seem to fit quite like I though it would. I'm going to install them and set the engine tomorrow and see what happens.
Thanks for everyone's help.

What year are you looking for? 71 is different from 72.

 OK, the motor mount is the same both sides in 72 for 318. 2863735 340 is 2536121. The bracket for the right is 3418394 (318 & 340) and left is 2806025 (318) and 3418400 (340). Same block I don't know why there is a difference but there is. Looks like left is the curved one. Google 2806025 bracket and all sorts of pictures will come up. |
