Default Motor Mounts

I was looking if someone could help me out with some motor questions.. I am putting a 5.0 from a 1988 LX into a 1985 GT and will they have the same motor mounts?? I also have aftermarket headers on the engine and was wondering if they dont rub in the engine bay of the 1985.. will it be the same for the 1985..? Because i am painting the engine bay soon and i dont want to have to grind and make things fit after it is all painted.What would you reccomend for motor mounts?

Id suggest you get 94-95 5.0 mounts. they are designed better.

That is the first time I have ever heard someone suggest getting 94/95 mounts for a fox. Never knew they would work but I guess its one of those obvious it should things.

similar design to vert mounts.

I put my old stockers in my friends 88 because his were torn apart.
