Post subject:  Mystery - '61 Trans Mount

Strange days

I have a '61 Lancer with an A904.

The trans mount is shot.
They are not to be had (unless I want to pay $100+ for an original which might by now have rubber hard as cast iron).
No one makes a poly repro, and I don't want one that hard anyway. They're like a solid mount vibration-wise.

It looks like this:

I've been told that mount is only for a 170ci Slant Six.

My engine is a 1968 225 with stock trans cross member.

BUT the real question is: will a 225 ('62 - up) trans mount fit my cross member?

It looks like this:

What says the Forum?

Post subject:  wow...

if you have a '61 Lancer, hold onto it, more rare as the days go by...

Any chance you can share pics of your Lancer?

Sorry, not helpful on your question though. Are you sure the NOS one's are brittle and unusable?

It's not really a mystery at all, mister. I gave you full information on exactly what your mount is, and I told you whom to ask to get a definitive answer to your question of whether the '62-'72-plus-'61-225 trans mount will fit your '61 170 crossmember. Did you contact him?
