Hi all,

I have been looking at the Ron Morris adjustable motor mounts for my 1966 mustang. Specifically the 1/2" lowering mounts. I need a little more clearance for the transmission. Lowering the engine would give me the clearance I need as well as improve my driveline angle.

I have read that the 66 mustang engine mounts were 1/2" higher than the 65 mounts. If that is the case then the 1/2" lowering mounts might actually result in the engine being lowered 1". Does anybody know the correct story on this?

My other question is about my clutch linkage. I have the factory Z bar linkage. If I use the lowering mounts, what will have to be done to make the linkage work?

Here are the mounts I am referring to.

I have the RMP adjustable mounts and have been very happy with them, but I can't answer your question about the lowering mounts. I do know that with the clearance I have between the stock style replacement oil pan and the crossmember, I can't go much lower.

 

Can you compare the two mounts side by side?

 

The stock mounts vs the ron morris mounts or the two different height option ron morris mounts?

 

66 vs. 65 stock mounts...are they really different?

 

The early 65 and 66 mounts are different, but have no idea about the height.

 

ok, assuming that the 1/2" lowering mounts only lower the engine 1/2" does anybody have any thoughts on how this would affect the clutch linkage?
