    '63 Fairlane engine swap (260-5.0L) Which engine mounts?

     



    I'm currently in the process of swapping my 260 & 2 spd for a 5.0L roller cam engine & C4 in my '63 Fairlane. I was told that the engine mounts are the same, but now that both engines are out the car side by side I've noticed that the spacing where the mounts are bolted to the block are different. They are spaced further appart on the new engine, does anyone know what I can replace them with? Could I use the engine mounts from a late 80's F100/F150? Any help would be appreciated as I haven't found any people here in Australia who know. Thanks.
