Is there a good swap for factory style motor mounts for a 63 Galaxie with a 390? I keep tearing them up. Are later ones better and will they fit? Solids? Any other suggestions? Thanks.

An old drag racing solution. Drill a 3/8 hole near the center of the mounts and snug with a bolt, washer and nut. This keeps you from tearing things up if it breaks. It's kinda a solid/nonsolid mount.The ones from Autozone in my Galaxie are going on 8 years. RW

That sounds like a decent idea for cheap. May have to give that one a try. Thanks. 63500
