Hello
I need new front engine mounts on my 1937 v8-60. Does anybody know if these are the same as on the 85hp? And are there any differences between rear and front mounts?

As far as i know there are no difference in the engine/trans "donuts" between V8-60 and the bigbrothers and what is available new today is the same for front/rear.

Actually they are different. That's why Ford made the 60 mounts brown and the 85/90 mounts black - for a very quick way to tell them apart so as not to install incorrect mounts.
I don't recall well enough to say which one... however, one was softer than the other and one (the 60 I believe) was a tad "taller".
 
Ok i stand corrected...have never seen anything but the black ordinary ones in the v8-60s i worked on...and no clue if anyone today makes anything else then the std mounts.

I've never seen the 60 mounts reproduced - no doubt too little call for them.
I am certain the 85 mounts would fit and probably function "good enough" that no one would know the difference.
