'68 390 motor mounts
« on: June 26, 2014, 03:45:13 AM »
Brackets that go between the frame and insulator/bracket on the block.  Late San Jose build (late April 68).

Believe they should be natural bare steel, and the bolts S2.  Does it vary between X and S, or the same?

???

If your refinishing them - remember to return the fresh welded look/discoloration to the welded areas of the mount ;)
